vol. 01 - Top 5 Asian Movies
Lily Chou-Chou (2001) — it’s a depressing movie, ngl.
Suzhou River (2000) — it’s about happily ever after?
Pickpocket (Xiao Wu) (1997) — a love story set in China during the early days of modernisation.
Happy Together (1997) — it’s about connection.
Hairpin Circus (1972) — street racing in ’70s Japan.
Watched the first three at the @artgalleryofnsw movie screening program (thanks guys).
Also thanks to @anggara12 for showing me Happy Together. A+ for the effort matching the video and subtitle. (Lowkey I wish I can speak cantonese lol)
P.S.: In Happy Together, I noticed how often they’re smoking. Literally every other scene. I even checked Reddit to see if someone had counted how many times they light up… but no one did. Maybe you’ll be the first?
