In a new Trailers From Hell commentary video, filmmaker Quentin Lee talks about Wong Kar-wai's Chungking Express from a personal perspective -- Lee grew up in Hong Kong -- and also provides cultural context for the film.
Lee is one of my favorite filmmakers, Chungking Express is one of my favorite films, and Trailers From Hell is a fantastic resource to hear filmmakers talking about other filmmakers, so this is a perfect combination.
Watch the video below. The film is available on Blu-ray from the Criterion Collection. It is also now streaming on The Criterion Channel, along with other films by Wong Kar-wai.
