👋 Hi guys! If you fell in love with Wong Kar-wai’s In the Mood for Love, then you’ll definitely enjoy his earlier breakthrough film Chungking Express. It’s got all that dreamy style, but with a playful energy, so come along and let’s talk cinema!

This is a landmark romantic drama was shot during a two-month break from editing his martial arts epic Ashes of Time and is celebrated as a kinetic, stylish, and deeply poetic masterpiece of 1990s world cinema. The film is split into two distinct, sequential stories with both narratives centring on a lovesick, heartbroken Hong Kong police officer coping with a recent breakup.

The Meetup: We’ll be meeting a bit earlier at the Victory House Bar next to the cinema at 11:45 am. Then at 12:15 pm it's a short walk to Prince Charles Cinema (Screen 2) where you will find me in row A8 if you want to sit nearby. You’ll find the full schedule breakdown, tickets, and addresses below.

At 2:20PM: we’ll reconvene for a Letterboxd Review and a Late lunch in China town which is a perfect into this sort of movie.

So if you’re a fan of Wong Kar-wai’s dreamy storytelling or just love a film that makes you feel something deeply, then this one's for you.

See you there!
Stefan.
