Chungking Express (Bonus Track)


















Chungking Express (1994)
a film by Wong Kar-wai

Chungking Express was the movie I never saw and everyone recommended. The zeitgeist that past in front of my eyes and I couldn't see. But armed with a wheat beer and escaping the summer rain I play this filmed and meet another cinema-fairy that at the rhythm of The Cranberries crawled into my memory. Vertiginous at times and emotional and sweetly melancholic in others, Chungking Express lived up to its promises delivering a fresh and memorable piece of cinema, that populates the memory with lots of sweet images and left me craving for Hong Kong fast food.
