Won Kar Wai’s 2046


Zhang Ziyi looking very alluring in 2046

Won Kar Wai’s new movie 2046 is out. I am looking forward to seeing it. If it is like the prequel, In the mood for love then I will be happy.

Synopsis:

He was a writer, He thought he wrote about the future but it really was the past. In his novel, a mysterious train left for 2046 ……. BORING and it gets worse

Basically the movie is about a man who thinks about all the women in his life. There are some Sci-Fi sub plots, but they are not important. It is a movie about relationships. The plot is a distant second. If you watch this movie looking for a great plot or action then you will be greatly disappointed. But if you like character driven movies, then 2046 is for you

The official site movie site. Better have broadband because it is one of those slow ‘artistic’ flash driven websites. I hate it.

This is a website I like. Quick, simple, lots of pictures and easy to read

Maggie Cheung in 2046. She is without a doubt my favorite chinese actress.
