    Close Your Eyes

    Kept thinking of halmeoni & the way you can catch glimpses of a person’s lost parts in their eyes

    Idk if i’ve winced so much throughout a film since, like, midsommar. Did not expect chow mo-wan’s heartbroken bastardized villain arc. Visual and thematic references to in the mood for love were cool, i’ll give it that

    Fallen Angels

    ★★★★½

    Fuck, that was one of the most visually engaging and stunning things I’ve ever seen. Christopher Doyle was using that camera like an instrument, truly a master at his craft

    To me, Fallen Angels was a lot more about feeling than it was about story. And it made me feel a lot, especially the isolation and (sexy) despair of the characters. Really interesting to see such a wildly different perspective from Wong Kar-Wai of Hong Kong at night compared to the one he takes in In the Mood for Love
