Originally, I've intended to write about both the TOKYO FILMeX opening ceremony, and then my thoughts on the opening film co-directed by Walter Salles and Daniela Thomas, LINHA DE PASSE (really good film). But I'll write my review in my next post. I headed to Yurakucho rather early today because it's the opening of the TOKYO FILMeX and I wanted to make sure I can get tickets for LINHA DE PASSE. I was...

Why does he love Tony? ...for the scene in Happy Together that takes place on the rooftop....

Wong Kar Wai's re-envisioned "Ashes of Time" is one of the most beautiful films I've seen in quite some time. As an example, watch the faces of the film's leads -- Brigitte Lin, Tony Leung, Leslie Cheung -- which are often used like a scrim. Faint shadows from an adjacent spinning birdcage or the reflections of nearby running water...

If this were a literal co-habitation sort of contest I would enter daily and/or perform illegal acts to ensure that I myself would win. Alas... 'tis but a DVD. But Tony Leung Chiu Wai was made for the silver screen so taking a DVD home is the next best thing. Right? Right. Seoul Raiders is a comic action film starring Tony as a tough Chinese detective/thief/spy (I guess he multi-tasks) and the über...

Tony Leung has not been in the news a lot lately, in fact the one thing that keeps popping up is his role in “Red Cliff”. Always the gentleman, he helped director John Woo out of a prickly situation when star Chow Yun Fat suddenly left. And now some people say he doesn’t really shine in this role. Hm...pity, if that’s true. When I saw Wong Kar Wai’s “2046” at the 2005 edition of the International Film...
