ah and i watched chungking express. i NEED to watch wong's whole discography now because the cinematography is top notch. the story might seem dull to a lot of people but you need to understand a sense of alienation to feel something while watching it?
watched in the mood for love. i had been meaning to watch it for a long time. i’ve also been meaning to go through the whole filmography of wong kar-wai properly. the only one i had seen before this was chungking express. now i need to talk about this because hello???

i’ve said this before and i’ll say it again- the depiction, the cinematography, it’s nothing like anything i’ve seen before. the use of colour in this film is so beautifully done. every frame looks like a painting. it’s genuinely a treat to the eyes.
the story itself is very minimal. the plot is simple - two neighbours slowly realise that their spouses are cheating on them with each other and then they start spendingtime with each other - that’s basically it. but the simplicity is the whole point. the cinematography fills the space so beautifully. it creates this sense of yearning. the way they look at each other when the other person isn’t looking, and then quickly avert their eyes when they are. it’s so intimate and delicate.
and the ending!!!! when he goes to cambodia and whispers his secret into the hollow of the stone. it’s about that story he tells earlier about how in the old days people would whisper their secrets into a tree and seal it with mud so no one would ever hear them. the idea that some feelings can only exist as secrets.
"he remembers those vanished years. as though looking through a dusty window pane, the past is something he could see, but not touch." COME ON!
there’s also that moment where he says, "feelings can creep up just like that. i thought i was in control." and that is so true. you cant put a finger on when live happened to you. it just slowly settles somewhere inside you until one day you realise it has always been there.
this film made me feel everything.
