A day being Wong Kar-Wai


Since when did I start to like Wong's movie? perhars under my brother's influence that I started to enjoy the taste and sense in his movies. The moody lighting, the rather confusing dialoges, the mystery of story line, and especially his taste of music.
My favourite amongst all is 2046, can not explain the reason but perharps I really like the robot Wong Fei, the Japanese influence of style, and the only one story which I claim to fully understand. I always want to portray myself as tony, a man with sadness in the eyes, the humour, the charming smile, and the habbit of smoking; which I reagarded as "the true man", and I see Wong's shadow in this character. However I can never be this man not only I don't agree on smoking, or drinking, but I yet have the depth. Hopefully one day my brother can make a film which can turn me into such person, even for 1 minute.
Life is full of uncertainty and I think Wong's movies somehow carried this message with them. May be one day I will turn into Tony, who knows.
