Review of Chungking Express (1994) by Ken J — 10 Dec 2010
Brigitte Lin has her own unique style. I like it.
Those numbers and quotes by all cast are meaningful and memorable.
Congrats to Tony Leung for winning Best Actor in Golden Horse and HK Film Award. He's natural and so far he has been the best spoke person for all Wong Kar Fai's films. He knows what is in the director's mind without script.
Faye Wong, a leading figure in everywhere she been, she deserved the Stockholm Film Festival Best Actress. She's fantastic!
The film have been connected to many movies later as one of the influential films in the 90s.
Excellent cinematography by Christopher Doyle & Wai-keung Lau.
I enjoyed the soundtrack very much especially the songs by Faye Wong & "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas & The Papas.
Rated 3 stars by Roger Ebert.
