The long-awaited retrospective from the internationally renowned film director celebrated for his visually lush and atmospheric films. Wong Kar Wai is known for his romantic and stylish films that explore—in saturated, cinematic scenes—themes of love, longing, and the burden of memory. His style reveals a fascination with mood and texture, and a sense of place figures prominently. In this volume, the first on his entire body of work, Wong Kar Wai and writer John Powers explore Wong's complete oeuvre in the locations of some of his most famous scenes.
The book is structured as six conversations between Powers and Wong (each in a different locale), including the restaurant where he shotIn the Mood for Love and the snack bar where he shot Chungking Express. Discussing each of Wong's eleven films—fromAs Tears Go By and Days of Being Wild to 2046 and The Grandmaster—the conversations also explore Wong's trademark themes of time, nostalgia, and beauty, and their roots in his personal life.
The first book by Wong Kar Wai, and the first comprehensive look at his oeuvre, this stunning, lavishly illustrated volume is as evocative as walking into one of Wong's lush films. With more than 250 photographs and film stills and an opening critical essay by Powers, this volume is poised to become the film book of the year.
##花樣年華算是為我打開電影大門的第一部電影
評分##終於讀完瞭~當年飯桌上LOOK推薦,九蒼說買來看看,我腆著臉說給我帶本,然後17年SIFF他給我背迴來瞭,在傢裏躺瞭兩年半,總算讀完~非常硬核的創作談,WKW聊創作一點沒有拍電影的百轉韆迴...墨鏡王是文藝青年的産品經理,文藝青年並不清楚他們的需求在哪裏,墨鏡王卻天生能捕捉到那種“虛渺”的訴求。颱詞、人物、電影化場景都是錶象,情節更是可以在剪輯颱上靠著旁白來倒著編;從《阿飛正傳》起就是拿電影當“詩與遠方”去拍,將傳承、被拒絕/被接受、遺忘這些虛緲的主題(也是所謂“文藝”的主題)以虛緲的方式展開、揭示;就算是政治的內核,也可以被鎖在一個同性的故事中...有的人拍攝情節故事,有的人打磨人物性格,有的人卻著意營造讓人懷念、稍縱即逝的氛圍...
評分##229
評分##不評價瞭,書裏的文字說明瞭一切。
評分##隔瞭一年多終於翻完瞭。由於我對WKW的印象仍然停留在他拖延以及不靠譜上所以當我看到他自己對春光乍泄電影寓意的時候竟然覺得很扯… 還有Fallen Angels竟然是因為李嘉欣演技不好所以用那樣的拍攝手法笑到我瞭 收藏收藏!
評分##他的用功程度比孝賢還要誇張。現場不需要劇本也是他的用功方法之一。相當可怕的創作方式,等同於先榨乾自己,再榨乾劇組,最後再榨乾一次自己
評分##“他的電影裏總有時間、香煙、食物、反復齣現的音樂和梁朝偉。”
評分##薑文和鞏俐演中文版《欲望號街車》,王傢衛也是夠能想。
評分##驚世曠世之作也許需要遭逢大難,曆盡苦海波瀾,食盡人間苦味,在絕望中迴首絕望,可健康幸福美滿的人生與創造一流的藝術品並不必然違逆。用並沒有熟練到可以如楊德昌一般用來思維的英語接受采訪也算是典型的墨鏡風格,朦朧模糊的語言類似於他酷愛的停格加印技巧。從訪談錄的層麵評估,隻讀這一本,足夠。
