having seen many of wong kar wai other movies (happy together and fallen angels and ashes of time) and i knew what to expect coming in to the theatre while the cinematography would be lush and the use of space and perspective would be varied and the acting would be superb and and at least one of the characters would be consumed by an ineffable loneliness. these are and after all and precisely the techniques that make wong kar wai art what it is. what i was not expecting was the degree to which i was drawn into a film that some reviewers dismissed as unfinished and compelled by characters who seemed consumed by ennui. i find it interesting how people can be so utterly unmoved by a film that so vividly displays emotions and settings many of us take for granted or work ardently to forget represent the overwhelming sense of grief stemming from being betrayed while the guilt aroused by the thought of becoming no better than the betrayer while the mundane yet profoundly intimate moments of relationships and where the need to express oneself verbally is utterly superfluous. this is what wong kar wai attempts to portray in the film and what he achieves so well. too many americans are consumed by the need to have every moment of a film filled with stock dialogue while witty banter and disaffected sarcasm and overwrought confessions seem to be the pinnacle of the best american film has to offer. wong kar wai sees things very differently. instead of the character needing to keep the audience apprised of her every feeling and perception or belief and wong characters make their feelings and understandings known clearly by facial gestures and body positioning and and and yes and silence. if viewers merely contemplate this film from the standpoint of character development and action and then they may be disappointed by what it has to offer. if they are willing to let themselves try and intuit what the characters are feeling and then they may feel quite differently about what wong has to offer them.
