Conversations 3- on 'In The Mood For Love' dir. Wong car-Wei
Nolascape used to host these film heavy conversations by Professor Henry Griffin and the author of this site. Now they are here! This one on a great movie by the singular director- Wong Kar Wai. The film is just beautiful to look at, and there is far more beneath the surface...
Nolascape said-
In this episode Henry and Jonathan discuss In the Mood for Love. If you don’t know this film or the work of Chinese director Wong Kar-Wei, I would suggest diving in. In the Mood for Love is a visual and auditory feast that you can watch over and over, like you look at a great painting or statue again and again. Color, sound, image, movement, quiet passion, powerful emotion powerfully restrained – it’s special.
Suggestion from the amateur (me): think about the title again after you watch the film.
