2046

Perhaps the biggest cast you could get at the time in Asia, as well as one of the most iconic director in the world, Wong Kar-Wai. Visually perfect as always, coupled with memorable characters, 2046 is unmistakably a Wong film. Perhaps only he could get these actors and actresses to star in 2-bit roles. Like other of Wong's films, what the story lacks, the film compensates itself with amazing atmosphere. I probably won't remember anything about the film's story, but I will definitely remember the characters and settings designs. However, I am not a fan of the setting of the 2046 world, it feels too superfluous but perhaps it is because of the lacking in technology.

2046 quotes

  • Bai Ling: I don't get it. Were does all that fun get you? If you find the right person, why waste time on the others?

    Chow Mo Wan: If I find the right person? A man like me has nothing much except free time. That's why I need company.

    Bai Ling: So people are just time fillers to you?

    Chow Mo Wan: I wouldn't say that. Other people can borrow my time to.

    Bai Ling: And tonight? Are you borrowing me, or am I borrowing you?

    Chow Mo Wan: No difference. Maybe I borrowed you earlier, now you're borrowing me.

    Bai Ling: Ridiculous.

  • Tak: I once fell in love with someone. After a while she was gone. I couldn't stop wondering if she loved me or not. I went to 2046 hoping to find her there. But I never found her.
