FALLEN ANGELS


CHUNGKING EXPRESS


I got it and I got it bad.

Brigitte Lin is a gangsta bitch.

Here's the proof:





Wong Kar-Wai is my latest favorite movie director. I watched Chungking Express (grab yo ticket, come get wit it) last night... I have LOVED every single film of his that I've watched in the past few months, and Chungking Express is no exception. In the Mood for Love might still be my favorite, but with scenes like those above and lines like "Somehow I've become very cautious. When I put on a raincoat, I put on sunglasses too. Who knows when it will rain, or when it will turn out sunny?" it's impossible for me to not love this.

Vive le cinéma!

Z (1969)

Concurrently, the military banned long hair on males; mini-skirts; Sophocles; Tolstoy; Euripedes; smashing glasses after drinking toasts; labor strikes; Aristophanes; Ionesco; Sartre; Albee; Pinter; freedom of the press; sociology; Beckett; Dostoyevsky; modern music; popular music; the new mathematics; and the letter "Z", which in ancient Greek means "He is alive!"

From the credits:

Any resemblance to actual events, to persons living or dead, is not the result of chance. It is DELIBERATE.

If you haven't seen it, you should watch Z by Costa-Gavras as soon as possible. This is one of my favorite movies of all time.
