i've heard that she was acting like a rockstar (in fact she was a singer very famous in china); she nailed the character without even rehearse; and once she shot all the scenes she had to do, she would then leave the set till the next day.
Although the trespassing part was creepy, but in a metaphorical sense it was cute. She entered into his space(heart/mind) unknowingly and changed everything, and he slowly accepted it.
You're talking about Tony Leung? He was my celebrity crush in my early teens. I had a couple posters and a few pinups of him 😆. I watched him since I was a kid back when he was only a TV actor but nonetheless already a top 5 TV actor at the time. He must be the most complete Hong Kong actor ever. A star on both the small screen and big screen and known internationally also. Jackie Chan is a bigger star and more known internationally but not a complete actor. Jackie Chan was never a TV actor and his type of roles is limited. Tony Leung on the other hand can play anything from comedy, drama to action.
@@michaelnguyen3200 Chow Yun-fat and Tony Leung are the two of the best and most famous. Plus they are good friends and starred in some movies together. "Hardboiled" etc.
I've watched this movie to death and for the life of me couldn't understand why it was so special until today when it finally hit me! The happiness comes from how innocent the movie is. Everything in the second part, the story, the emotions, the dialogue is just full of innocence and it's just absolutely heart warming!
i've seen this movie like 5 times and i'm not bored of it yet. i really do recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet, it's beautiful in its own way :)
I can't stress how stellar Wong Kar Wai and Christopher Doyle are together as a team. Discovered them 3 days ago, have watched 9 of his films since then, and I don't regret a second of it.
I remember after I watched this movie for the first time, i couldn't get enough of it and kept searching and searching for similar movies. Before Sunrise, Midnight in Paris, The scent of Green papaya, Fallen Angels...I watched it all in pursuit of the same whimsical feel this movie so beautifully encompassed . And while all of them were extremely enjoyable and aesthetically pleasing, I never found in them the same feelings and sensations that chungking express evoked in me . And that's when I realised that there simply isn't any movie out there that has brings this whimsical, hopeful, nostalgic vibe quite as well as this one does. Chungking Express is a classic for that reason, it can't be replicated and there's no movie quite like this. Wong karwai's best work truly.
Not to compare these two movies, but I feel like you might like "Happy Together" as well. But there is definitely no innocence, mostly melancholy, so idk if it's your cup of tea. But it had it's own vibes for sure
It was 07 or 08. I was 14 and we were on vacation in Malaysia with my parents and my brother. I was doing the rounds of rides in the amusement park in Genting Highlands when I spotted a girl at the bumper cars. She was really cute and I was completely smitten. I went on the bumper cars for 4 rounds just because she went too. During one round, we were going to collide head on, I saw her close her eyes and brace for impact. At the last second I veered right and narrowly missed her. (yeah simp whatever). That was the last round after which she disappeared somewhere. I still think about this dumb thing sometimes wondering what ever happened to her. Reason I'm recollecting this is coz she looked exactly like a younger version of the actress. The same almond shaped face, short hair, slim physique and a nonchalant attitude.
I have a similar story. In 1994, just out of college I was on my way to work riding the subway and there was this girl sitting adjacent to me. She's a black girl with radiant eyes and chiseled features. I was captivated by her look and I couldn't help it to dart my eyes back and forth on her face while avoiding eye contact. At one moment we locked eyes and we both immediately stared away from each other to avoid awkwardness. So the entire 15 minute ride we were playing eye contact hide and seek. The train arrived at my station so on my way walking out of train I turned around and gave her one last glance and noticing her looking at me too. I already stepped out of the train and the door was shut, through the train window I finally gave her a subtle hand wave and she waved back and even leaned forward from her seat as if she wanted to approach me. We were both looking at each other while the moving train continued to increase our distance. She was gone. Her slender frame and features reminded me of Faye Wong too. I too think about whatever happened to her and wonder what would happen if I had decided not to step out of that train. I probably would have made a new friend. . . or more. But I would have lost my job!

Someone else can talk about Andy Lau. Faye Wong has more charisma on camera than almost any other actress I have ever seen. And I am old. She's like watching a flare burning.
yes i am féministe i dont like now movie that forced feminist character to pop and this one she is not trying alot she have charisma and both men and women like it and enjoy watching it for me she is the best female characters i ever seen
Finished this movie, nothing happens but so literally everything happens. You feel a wave of love in your heart, it’s so warm. This movie will remain close to my heart
Glad you liked it! Maybe you want to check out the new 4K remastered version of this. Better visual, better audio quality and, hopefully, better edit 😅 Link in my pinned comment ✌️
Love the edit! There's something about the choice of shots- almost melancholic, vignette-y, artsy, painting-the-whole-picture vibe about it. Great job. Makes me wanna watch the movie all over again :)
Im only 15 years old, and my mom, who was born in the 70's, brought me to see this movie a couple months back. im so happy she did becase i dont know why but i love it
I saw this in an art house cinema in my hometown when it first came out in 1994. I loved the film, but can't now understand how I missed how beautiful Faye Wong and Tony Leung were/are .
I watched this movie in 4K in theatre last week, such a great film. Tony’s eyes are so attractive. Last night I watched In The Mood For Love, the color grading is different yet still a masterpiece!
This movie takes me to a world that does not exist. I keep coming back to this movie and song every year since past 10 years. There’s something about this movie which is unexplainable. Innocence of this girl, sadness and loneliness of the cop and foolishness and hopeless romantic nature of the first guy all these things which do not exist today. Something is which cannot be remade!
- As tears go by - Days of Being Wild - 2046 (There's also "My blueberry nights" which is sort of a "best of" Wong Kar-wai's topoi, shot in USA with american actors. I didn't like it very much but you can give it a go, the filmaking style is beautiful as always).
watch fallen angels! it was meant to be the third short story to this film but ended up becoming a full length on its own, it's my second favourite of his after chungking express
I love their unique way of shooting the scenes in this cinema which is something to be considered great from the 90's and I think this song kind of fits with them.
@@Clarencito I've spent the last hour watching a lot of your videos - you have an incredible eye for the heart of some great movies and songs. Very excited to subscribe and see what else you're making.

This movie made me to travel to Hong Kong. It was my first HK travel, I had best time in there. I miss that time so much when I see photograph I took in Hk. I want to visit again soon.
There are times in which I have those California Dreamin' scenes in my head, and when I listen to that song I return to the movie, every single time. Such a dazzling movie.
If you willing to read this, thank you. I'm an asian, and this song is making me want to go out there and chasing that american dream. I know, a lot of thing is happening right now. But the american dream never go away. In my country, going to america, even to open a nails bar or working in service is like the restart, a fresh start for every one who want to escape the old life and do it all over again in the states. We work, we saving money and we try to start a business or going to college in the states. A lot of our asian brothers and sisters do the same, if they are American Born, so their parents is the one fighting and sacrifice for their children life. Why am I saying this? Is because when I have grown up a little bit and have chances to meet new people, lots of western people assume us as some kind of rich or extraordinary human being, which we don't. We just come to your country, settle down, try to work and hopefully we can make our life better.
All the leaves are brown And the sky is grey I've been for a walk On a winter's day I'd be safe and warm If I was in L.A. California dreaming On such a winter's day Stopped into a church I passed along the way Well, I got down on my knees And I pretend to pray You know the preacher likes the cold He knows I'm gonna stay California dreaming On such a winter's day All the leaves are brown And the sky is grey I've been for a walk On a winter's day If I didn't tell her I could leave today California dreaming On such a winter's day
Crazy how the second part of the movie just erased the first one in my memory, even with how excellent it is. When I think of Chungking Express, I think of California Dreamin", I think of selling fish and chips, I think of airplanes.
I watched this when it went out in the 90's and instantly loved it. Many many years later I flew to California and had only this song in my head, and that image of Faye Wong. California as a dream... long gone.
Could a movie possibly get more unabashedly romantic than Chungking Express? First time I saw it, I just had a huge smile of joy on my face while watching it...
Just discovered your channel and I adore how active you are and how well you edit these videos! It seems to be a very lovely passion of yours and I’m glad you’re sharing it with the rest of us. I love your song choices and movie choices! Thank you :)
Apparently, this is a film. It's a film I've not only never seen, but have never even heard of. It seems very interesting, and all of that just framed by this video. Now I'll have to check it out. I thought this was some kind of short film created to work as a music video. I was wrong. It's very beautifully done. Excellent job. You got a like. Great work!
You're about to enter in a world of wonder and magic crafted by the master that is Wong Kar-wai, have a good trip! And then, if you want, on my channel you can find plenty more about this director, definitely one of the best (if not the best..) of the last 30 years.
Im glad i watched your previous stuff, now my recommended is filled with your contents and i cant helpmyself but check them all, they are all so..special in terms of content
I moved to Hong Kong on August 13th 1987 and experienced much of what made this movie great., I know every location in the movie. Many years of my life are trapped in this movie. A brilliant experience. Add oil Hong Kong.
There's a moment in film where Faye for a brief peeked into the first story, that is around @ 17.16, when the Blonde Wig Woman was in front of a shop and Faye came out of that place with a Garfield stuff toy she bought. That was really an Interesing intersection and the whole time I was looking forward for somethig that would take me there. Anyways, loved the movie. I felt different after thismovie ended. Somewhat a different feeling.

Crazy how the second part of the movie just erased the first one in my memory, even with how excellent it is. When I think of Chungking Express, I think of California Dreamin", I think of selling fish and chips, I think of airplanes.
THE EMOTIONS IN THIS MOVIE GODDAMN
He is magnificently handsome, and she is extremely beautiful.
hands down my fave movie of all time. It gets better the more you watch it
One of my fav films.. I miss the 90s HK 😢
I watched this when it went out in the 90's and instantly loved it. Many many years later I flew to California and had only this song in my head, and that image of Faye Wong. California as a dream... long gone.
Wow the edit really captures the overall vibe of the story well!! Thank you fot this🙏🏻
Thank you! 💙
You should check out the 4K version of this (better audio/video quality)

I love this movie, everytime I see it its like the first time and maybe thats what is important, the discovery and not the experience!
Could a movie possibly get more unabashedly romantic than Chungking Express? First time I saw it, I just had a huge smile of joy on my face while watching it...
This song triggers emotions that I haven't felt in years
i wish i could live inside the wong kar wai universe
Oh ❤❤❤
This film is precious
Faye Wong inanılmaz bir kadın, doğal ve masum bir güzelliği var,. Sanki bu dünyadan değilmiş gibi.
My girlfriend love this movie, and i love her!
Just discovered your channel and I adore how active you are and how well you edit these videos! It seems to be a very lovely passion of yours and I’m glad you’re sharing it with the rest of us. I love your song choices and movie choices! Thank you :)
Thank you! 🙏🙏
Glad you like my videos!
Fayei cok seviyorum, harika biri
Apparently, this is a film. It's a film I've not only never seen, but have never even heard of.
It seems very interesting, and all of that just framed by this video. Now I'll have to check it out.
I thought this was some kind of short film created to work as a music video. I was wrong.
It's very beautifully done. Excellent job.
You got a like. Great work!
You're about to enter in a world of wonder and magic crafted by the master that is Wong Kar-wai, have a good trip!
And then, if you want, on my channel you can find plenty more about this director, definitely one of the best (if not the best..) of the last 30 years.
@@Clarencito Thank you!
@@TheHylianBatman I suggest you to start from "chungking Express" , and then go with "in the mood for love"
@@Clarencito Thank you, I will keep that in mind.
@@TheHylianBatman after Chunking, go for Fallen Angels (1995)
Im glad i watched your previous stuff, now my recommended is filled with your contents and i cant helpmyself but check them all, they are all so..special in terms of content
Thank you!! 🙏🙏
Kar-Wai Wong movies are so special
i really like the first story when they meet in the bar but the second story she just capture your heart.
I moved to Hong Kong on August 13th 1987 and experienced much of what made this movie great., I know every location in the movie. Many years of my life are trapped in this movie. A brilliant experience. Add oil Hong Kong.
When youtube recommends a banger.
I'm addicted to these forever
Then you might want to check out the new 4K version with better visual and audio quality

I can keep on repeat watching this movie ..,. Every time I find a different perspective ….Hong Kong movie at the finest
Someone take me away form this, Because I got addicted
Plenty more Wong Kar-wai on my Channel if you want to diversify your diet 😅✌️
The first half of this movie was so great. would have been so satisfied if they continued that story too until the end.
On my channel you can find a full video dedicated to the first half ✌️
Fist half was soo good, i really wanted to see what happened to the blonde girl.
0:33 this one scene where she is just moving her lips as the lyrics goes is so... I don't know, tasty to see is the closest word to define it now
There's a moment in film where Faye for a brief peeked into the first story, that is around @ 17.16, when the Blonde Wig Woman was in front of a shop and Faye came out of that place with a Garfield stuff toy she bought.
That was really an Interesing intersection and the whole time I was looking forward for somethig that would take me there.
Anyways, loved the movie. I felt different after thismovie ended. Somewhat a different feeling.
watch part 1 of the video and you will find exactly what you search ✌

Wong Kar Wai the goat. Also loved Faye Wong's cover of Dreams by the Cranberries in this film. Nice edit!
thank you! my fav film, fav Faye! Touching every part of my heart!
With CHUNGKING EXPRESS, the first story is about what a man thinks he wants in a woman; the second is about what a man REALLY wants in a woman!
