After watching Wong Kar-wai's "Evil in the East and Poison in the West", I watched "East Becomes West" many times in a row. Then I watched "Dong Xie Xi Po" over and over again overnight. When she had to close her eyes due to pain, what she saw was not Maggie Cheung's delicate but lonely face. But in the desert, the dust after the horses raised up and ran gradually settled. Whether it was the wine that was drunk and dreaming of death, or Ouyang Feng's resolute but desolate and stubborn feelings. All sank into the river that cannot be reversed with that time. What they recall is just their own fantasies or what if?
