Chungking Express (1994)

from Film Junk Podcast · host Film Junk

Do you... like pineapple? On this week's episode of Film Junk, we enter the vibe zone with Wong Kar-Wai as Frank finally takes the shrink wrap off of his Criterion Blu-ray for Chungking Express. The acclaimed Hong Kong director is known for his visual poetry and sense of romance but plot often takes a backseat to mood and emotion. Can breaking the law be romantic or is it always just plain reprehensible? Does step printing create a dreamlike atmosphere or does it just look dated? Could Frank gorf 30 cans of pineapple in one night? Has Sean ever heard The Cranberries before? Profess your undying love for cinema with the latest Film Junk podcast.
