    The overall structure of the story and the personalities of the characters have nothing to do with Wong Kar-wai's personalities, but they are similar to those of the Hong Kong gangster movies. But the style of the camera and the clues of the emotional drama have already begun to be "Wong Kar Wai". After all, this film is Liu Hua style not Wong Kar Wai style. I really like this kind of Andy, a tough young man. The soundtrack is Take my breath...

    Wong Kar-wai's works before the formation of a series of "author style" works produced violent Jianghu films that were even more "Young and Dangerous" than "Young and Dangerous". Under Starlight, Jacky Cheung's "Black Fly" and Wan Ziliang's Tony are the highlights of the...

    That cup, when you think of her, I'll tell you where she hides. At that time, Wong Kar-wai had not yet stepped out of the shadow of being a screenwriter for Deng Guangrong. The whole film was still a typical gangster action movie combining love and friendship. Of course, Wong Kar-wai's personalization has begun to appear in many details. For example, the scene of hiding the cup was almost unimaginable in other hero films at that time. A movie for...

    The actual significance of this film to Hong Kong films is greater than that of Wong Kar-wai. For Wong Kar-wai, this is a work that is still exploring the waters of personal style, and it clearly sees the constraints of typical underworld Hong Kong films, but for the same Hong Kong films, this is a subversive narrative...

    Wong Kar Wai's Virgin as a gangster film in Hong Kong at that time injected love, the style is not so obvious, and some of the slow motion is still very much. This is a doctor Liu Weiqiang played by Zhang Shuping. The round Andy Lau's bumpy Maggie Cheung won the male supporting role by relying on emoticons, or Jacky Cheung or the villain Wan Ziliang are all eye-catching, but the contradictions are too trivial. Broadway re-watched the Cantonese version and found that it was slightly different...

    A more rudimentary Wong Kar Wai style, with more primitive and candid light and shadow superimposition. Andy is loyal enough, Uncle Liang is vicious enough, and Youzai is frivolous enough. Although the violence is explosive, he can see the triviality of the future foreign market from the entanglement of men and women in Mong Kok. The confused men and women reached the end of their emotions in the light blue of the Pearl of the Orient, and the unruly Taibao stood up hard to complete the writing...

    Complementary standard. In fact, this film can see Wong Kar-wai's talent for narrative. Moreover, the way they walked was completely different from that of the group of people in Hong Kong who paid attention to the fast-paced narrative of slate. The warm route was well shot. As for why it was not so popular at that time, I can only think that the eyes of Hong Kong people were too high,...

    The first installment in the World of Wong Kar Wai series. This time, I found that I still don't like it very much. It may only be a difference from Samsung to Samsung and a half. Maybe it's because I really don't agree with the values ​​of Ahua and Wufei. Throughout the film, I always felt that it was essentially Wufei's personal identity crisis that finally dragged both of them into the abyss. As for the embellishment of the love part, I don't care whether the love between A Hua and A'e is...

    Wong Kar Wai is really an amazing man. The style of the first gangster-themed films is self-contained and has nothing to do with the first style. I have seen almost all of Lao Wang’s films, but I don’t watch Carmen Mong Kok. The reason is that I stubbornly disliked Andy Lau in my early years. Haha, Lao Wang later abandoned Andy because his temperament did not match his acting style. In this period, Maggie Cheung's hair looks very tasteful in a skirt, but it's a bit tacky when you tie up...

    I can't bear to have 3 stars, it's really immature compared to Lao Wang's later works, but it's a good romance film in general. The hopeless and inextricable love is expressed aptly and naturally. The cp of Dehua Manyu is so beautiful and full of charm, and it also adds some halo to this feeling. In fact, how humble such a relationship is in reality. And bleak. A'e, who walked up the stairs by herself, went the opposite way of the abortion woman. If the impulse to love can be resisted, then the...

    ten bullets

    Four years ago, for the first time in my life, I went to the night net in my hometown and watched "Mong Kok Carmen" with half Cantonese dialogue. Jacky Cheung started selling fish balls and I fell asleep. Later, I don't remember where I watched the second half, and I have a vague impression of the...

    Mong Kok Carmen: Love is enough

    (Written on 2009-06-19)

    People are floating in the rivers and lakes, who can not be hit by a knife? It is a familiar saying that spreads in the ears of the world. The first is the scar left on the body after being cut, and the second is the heart injury that cannot be healed after being injured....

As Tears Go By quotes

  • Wah: People like us don't have tomorrows

  • Wah: I did a lot of things for our godfather too. By the age of 14, I was already getting paid to kill. I've got more guts than most guys, right? But look at me now. I'm just an ordinary guy!

    Fly: At least you were a hotshot for a while! But what about me? What about me? Everyone looks down on me. Does that make you happy? People think I'm nothing, like some stray dog just following you around! Did you know that? I'd rather be a hero for one day than go on being a fly all my life!
