	Artificial Eye Film Company Ltd. Chungking Express [1995] <I>Chungking Express</I> tells two stories loosely connected by a Hong Kong snack bar. In one, a cop who's been recently dumped by his girlfriend becomes obsessed with the expiry dates on cans of pineapple; he's constantly distracted as he tries to track down a drug dealer in a blonde wig (played by Brigitte Lin, best known from <I>Swordsman II</I> and <I>The Bride with White Hair</I>). Meanwhile, another cop who's recently been dumped by his girlfriend (Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, from John Woo's <I>Hard-Boiled</I> and <I>A Bullet in the Head</I>) mopes around his apartment, talking to his sponge and other domestic objects. He catches the eye of a shop girl (Hong Kong pop star Faye Wang) who secretly breaks in and cleans his apartment. If you're beginning to suspect that neither of these stories has a conventional plot, you're correct. What <I>Chungking Express</I> does have is loads of energy and a gorgeous visual style that never gets in the way of engaging with the charming characters. The film was shot on the fly by hip director Wong Kar-Wai (<I>Happy Together</I>, <I>Ashes of Time</I>), using only available lighting and found locations. The movie's loose, improvisational feel is closer to Jean-Luc Godard's <I>Breathless</I> than any recent film--and that's high praise. Quirky, funny, and extremely engaging, <I>Chungking Express</I> manages to be experimental and completely accessible at the same time. --<I>Bret Fetzer, Amazon.com</I>     Availability: Usually dispatched within 24 hours Shipping: refer to store website	£19.99 at Amazon.co.uk  4.5/5 Info All items of this shop
