The long-awaited retrospective from the internationally renowned film director celebrated for his visually lush and atmospheric films. Wong Kar Wai is known for his romantic and stylish films that explore—in saturated, cinematic scenes—themes of love, longing, and the burden of memory. His style reveals a fascination with mood and texture, and a sense of place figures prominently. In this volume, the first on his entire body of work, Wong Kar Wai and writer John Powers explore Wong's complete oeuvre in the locations of some of his most famous scenes.
The book is structured as six conversations between Powers and Wong (each in a different locale), including the restaurant where he shotIn the Mood for Love and the snack bar where he shot Chungking Express. Discussing each of Wong's eleven films—fromAs Tears Go By and Days of Being Wild to 2046 and The Grandmaster—the conversations also explore Wong's trademark themes of time, nostalgia, and beauty, and their roots in his personal life.
The first book by Wong Kar Wai, and the first comprehensive look at his oeuvre, this stunning, lavishly illustrated volume is as evocative as walking into one of Wong's lush films. With more than 250 photographs and film stills and an opening critical essay by Powers, this volume is poised to become the film book of the year.
##隔瞭一年多終於翻完瞭。由於我對WKW的印象仍然停留在他拖延以及不靠譜上所以當我看到他自己對春光乍泄電影寓意的時候竟然覺得很扯… 還有Fallen Angels竟然是因為李嘉欣演技不好所以用那樣的拍攝手法笑到我瞭 收藏收藏!
評分##“他的電影裏總有時間、香煙、食物、反復齣現的音樂和梁朝偉。”
評分##花樣年華算是為我打開電影大門的第一部電影
評分##film is a behavior, not plot and line
評分##驚世曠世之作也許需要遭逢大難,曆盡苦海波瀾,食盡人間苦味,在絕望中迴首絕望,可健康幸福美滿的人生與創造一流的藝術品並不必然違逆。用並沒有熟練到可以如楊德昌一般用來思維的英語接受采訪也算是典型的墨鏡風格,朦朧模糊的語言類似於他酷愛的停格加印技巧。從訪談錄的層麵評估,隻讀這一本,足夠。
評分説來説去WKW的魅力在哪裏,風格化的影像、迂迴巧妙的音樂、響當當的演員陣營、臭味相投的老拍檔等等固然,但最最迷惑人(擾人)的,還是他戲裏呈現的無法跨越的一道道鴻溝,期望與落空,現實與想像,傲氣與恐懼,記著與忘卻,壓抑與釋放、麵對與逃避。人與人,也是人與自己。「我以爲我們不會像他們那樣」、「我一直以爲我是贏的那個」,就算再看一百一韆遍,我們仍會這麽以爲,以爲自己比較高尚、比較堅定、比較不屑一顧。其實你越以爲自己和別人不同,就越與人都一樣,那句"I want to be different, just like everybody"不衹是調侃。
評分##英語苦手,假裝讀完。其實去掉圖片本書的內容算不上很多。但是這些圖片實在是太有必要瞭。我第一次感受到瞭張曼玉的美。王傢衛確實是鍾愛明星光芒的人。裝幀太精美瞭,愛不釋手。
