Review of Chungking Express (1994) by Joel R — 03 May 2010
The most stylish modern urban tale ever made, and Wong only took a very short time to make it. It contains two parts, the first part is an opposite-attraction story with a double meaning, the second part is a hide-and-seek, lost-and-found story.
The characters from different parts passed by each other which I think responded to Kieslowski's chance theme. It seems like borrowing from "The Double Life of Veronique," but this is what makes it even more interesting to me.
Faye Wong's film acting debut was unforgettable with her cool Cantonese cover of the Cranberries's "Dreams.".
