Viewing Notes
Took it upon myself to revisit Wong Kar-Wai’s exquisite Chungking Express (1994) now that I own the DVD. May upgrade to Blu-ray as this is really a film that deserves it. My memories were mainly tied to Brigitte Lin’s captivating scenes in the first arc. It’s possible that was all that I had seen. Tony Leung remains great altho I do think California Dreaming is a little overplayed during his story. Ultimately this is visually & emotionally stirring. Already look forward to viewing the BD.
