      My Blueberry Nights--The Film is Flawed and Awkward

      Generally speaking, the box office of a new film is closely related to the rise and fall of its own market. As a woman with a market, you should dress up and wait for someone to come to an appointment every time the schedule comes. The higher the box office, the more repeat viewings, and the better the market. For example, I've watched "King Kong" twice and "Transformers" three times....

      With style without content

      Wong Kar-Wai's "Blueberry Night" was a three-star movie because he thought the plot was thin; after re-watching it, it was still three-star, not because the plot was thin, but because the plot was too contrived.

              It is said that Wong Kar-wai does not write scripts when he makes movies, and likes to think while filming. I don't know if this rumor is true or not, but what is certain is that Wong Kar-wai likes to control the actors' performances. As a result, the actors have...

      There is always such a beautiful ambiguity

      Guests leave their room keys
      in a cafe glass jar.
      Some will be taken away in two days, some will be ignored again,
      she asked him: why don't you throw away those keys that no one manages,
      he said: won't do that. Otherwise no one will come to me again. I will not meet you either.

      What a great answer.

      The whole film is filled with Norah Jones' deep voice. Sing softly, or speak casually.
      This is the usual tone in Wong Kar-wai
      's films. Strangers who...

      Devil's Highway

      Every time I listen to Devil's Highway, my
      heart is like a precipitation;
      the movie is always unfinished in the bumps ~
      Blueberry Nights is my favorite movie, like ALICE in stealing the heart, the status of the heroine determines everything.
      I like heroines, so, I definitely like this one.
      should like it.
      Just like this music, it will never let me down.
      I am a poor wayfaring stranger
        I am your enemy for hire
        I cut the line, I brave the danger...

      Blueberry Night

      "Blueberry Night".
      It's the first time I've seen a Wong Kar Wai movie.
      I've heard many movie reviews, but when I see it in person, it feels different.
      "Blueberry Night" is not a very new subject for me. Even a little contrived.

      Right now, I might be on the same path.
      stay. wandering. Then look around with bright eyes. No words, but in the end it belongs to that small piece of time.
      Become the person in other people's stories, accompany you like warm...

    Positive review

    The pictures and colors of "My Blueberry Nights" can be found in Wong Kar-wai's consistent style. Poetic, soft, nostalgic pale yellow and hazy lights are the background color of the film. The illusory romance of old Hong Kong is in a trance. The brightly lit New York City high-rise buildings also found a foothold. The deliberately slowed shots and dynamic and sexy partial close-ups did not stay between the legs and skirts, but moved to...

    Movie quotes

    • Leslie: Sometimes your rhythm's off, you read the person right but still do the wrong thing.

      Elizabeth: Because you trust them?

      Leslie: Because you can't even trust yourself.

    • Elizabeth: The last few days, I've been learning not to trust people and I'm glad I've failed. Sometimes we depend on other people as a mirror to define us and tell us who we are and each reflection makes me like myself a little more.

    • Ofcr. Arnie Copeland: [aiming pistol at her as she walks away] Sue Lynn, I swear to God if you walk out of here, I'll kill ya.

      Sue Lynne Copeland: Then what?
