For me, Wong Kar Wai makes perfect movies. From the initial two minutes I was completely sucked in. I would have liked to watch Norah Jones travels across the country for hours and hours on end. Wong Kar Wai's movies exist in the dirtiest of night in cafes and bars and casinos and his style, the photography in his movies (usually by master Christopher Doyle, he's only given partial credit on this one though) is so underexposed and cranked up in post it creates eerie slo-mo shots the drift on, painting with the heavy grain. It's strange that a forty something man from Hong Kong so spot on sees the world the same way I do. He gives you dramatic nights, quiet mornings and intensely realistic romance that no one else's movies can touch. Music as always is heavily present. In this one, each segment has a theme song on loop. The first being Cat Power's 'The Greatest' and Chan Marshall herself even shows up in a very important cameo later. The risk of casting Norah Jones completely pays off as well, she is completely natural and devastatingly cute and honest. Something new for a Kar Wai movie, usually the women are dark, troubled, noirish figures or in Happy Together's case not present at all! The cast is stellar, being that he can pick and choose who he wants. Every performance wrapped in dense sadness. You must see this movie and every Wong Kar Wai movie. Watching this trailer makes me want to see the movie again right now!
