Our friend Aaron has long-told us about a mythical film, so amazing in its nature, so unique in its vision, that mortal man is forever changed just by letting his eyes fall upon its imagery.Just kidding! Aaron really does love Chungking Express (and he might have oversold it a little), but we sat down and watched it and ended up having a lively discussion about it!It's all in our latest Criterion episode.

Το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες συνεχίζει το ταξίδι του στις πιο διάσημες ταινίες του 1994. Μια χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Forrest Gump και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία. Σήμερα, μιλάμε όχι για μία, όχι για δύο, αλλά για τρεις ταινίες: Για την απίθανη τριπλέτα εμπορικών θριάμβων που είχε ο Jim Carrey το 1994: Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura και The Mask. Μαζί μας καλεσμένος, ο κωμικός Κώστας Κρύος! Απίστευτο κι όμως αληθινό, ο Jim Carrey ήρθε φαινομενικά από το πουθενά και μέσα σε ένα ημερολογιακό έτος γύρισε τρεις iconic κωμωδίες καριέρας, που τον έστειλαν κι οι τρεις στο #1 του box office και τον έκαναν επί τόπου ένα από τα μεγαλύτερα χολιγουντιανά ονόματα των τελευταίων 30 χρόνων. Συνεννοημένοι ήταν όλοι τους; Υπήρχε κάτι στον αέρα; Ποιος ήταν καν ο Jim Carrey πριν από αυτούς τους ρόλους, και πώς ξαφνικά έγινε το πιο καυτό –και ακριβοπληρωμένο– όνομα στο Χόλιγουντ; Μαζί με τον κωμικό Κώστα Κρύο, αναλύουμε τι είναι αυτό που κάνει την κωμωδία του Carrey μοναδική, από τον ένα ρόλο του στον άλλον. Θα μπορούσε ποτέ το The Mask να έχει υπάρξει με άλλον ηθοποιό; Τι είναι αυτό που κάνει ο Carrey κι ακόμα και κάτι σαν το Ace Ventura το κάνει αστείο; Τι ιστορικό πέτυχε ο αγαπημένος κωμικός το 1994; Πώς επιχείρησε να κάνει στροφή στην συνέχεια της καριέρας του, και γιατί πέτυχε; Πόσο πρέπει να μετανιώνει η Ακαδημία που δεν τον πρότεινε ποτέ για Όσκαρ; Με ποια σκηνή του γελάμε περισσότερο; Με ποια από τις τρεις ταινίες του το 1994; Και, τελικά, ποιος ήταν ο Ηλίθιος, και ποιος ο Πανηλίθιος; Αυτά και άλλα πολλά ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας, με καλεσμένο τον Κώστα Κρύο!

Το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες συνεχίζει το ταξίδι του στις πιο διάσημες ταινίες του 1994. Μια χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Forrest Gump και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία. Σήμερα, μετά από ένα διάλειμμα επιστρέφουμε στη σειρά και θυμόμαστε την τεράστια εμπορική επιτυχία του Τέσσερις Γάμοι και Μια Κηδεία, μια από τις διασημότερες ρομαντικές κομεντί των ‘90s – και όχι μόνο. Πώς έχει καταφέρει το Τέσσερις Γάμοι και Μια Κηδεία να διατηρήσει τη φήμη του ακόμα και 30 χρόνια μετά, όταν τα πάντα αναμφίβολα αμφισβητούνται, αναλύονται και γερνάνε; Γιατί η δομή του, με τους γάμους –και την κηδεία– του τίτλου, το μετατρέπει σε κάτι άφθαρτο στο χρόνο; Και πώς αυτή η δομή αναδεικνύει στο μέγιστο τα ταλέντα του σπουδαίου σεναριογράφου Richard Curtis (του Notting Hill και του Love Actually); Τι είναι πιο αληθινό σε αυτές τις συναντήσεις των κεντρικών ηρώων, και τι είναι πιο «εξωγήινα» κινηματογραφικό; Πώς δημιουργήθηκε μια ταινία που αψήφησε κάθε προσδοκία, φτάνοντας μέχρι τα Όσκαρ και καταφέρνοντας να γίνει μια από τις μεγαλύτερες επιτυχίες των ‘90s; Γιατί αυτή η ρομαντική κομεντί του 1994 είναι πιο όμορφη από τις περισσότερες σύγχρονες; Πώς η ταινία έστειλε το αστέρι του Hugh Grant στα ύψη, και γιατί μετά ο ηθοποιός δυσκολεύτηκε να αφήσει αυτή την επιτυχία πίσω του; Ποιος από όλο το φανταστικό ρόστερ β' ρόλων είναι ο αγαπημένος μας χαρακτήρας και γιατί; Πώς η ταινία προδίδει εν τέλει μόνο έναν ρόλο – αυτόν την Andie MacDowell; Αυτά και άλλα πολλά ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας!

Το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες συνεχίζει το ταξίδι του στις πιο διάσημες ταινίες του 1994. Μια χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Forrest Gump και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία. Σήμερα, μετά από ένα διάλειμμα επιστρέφουμε στη σειρά και θυμόμαστε την τεράστια βαμπιρική επιτυχία που ένωσε στην οθόνη Tom Cruise και Brad Pitt. Πώς κατάφερε μια ταινία –και μάλιστα φαντασίας– να ενώσει στην μεγάλη οθόνη δύο από τους μεγαλύτερους σταρς των τελευταίων 40 χρόνων, και μάλιστα σε ένα ταυτόχρονο peak τους; Τι είναι αυτό που κάνει τον Tom Cruise τόσο καλό σε αυτό το ρόλο, παρά το γεγονός πως δεν είναι καν εκεί σε όλη την ταινία; Γιατί δεν τον ήθελε καθόλου η Anne Rice, συγγραφέας του βιβλίου – και πώς έδειξε τελικά το ότι άλλαξε γνώμη όταν είδε την ταινία; Τι μας θυμίζει ο Brad Pitt σε αυτή την ταινία; Πόσο φανταστική είναι η Kirsten Dunst; Ποιοι άλλοι παραλίγο να γίνουν Lestat – και ποιος ήταν αυτός που έγινε, λίγα χρόνια αργότερα; Ποια άλλη βαμπιροταινία του ίδιου σκηνοθέτη αξίζει να δείτε παρά το γεγονός πως ψιλο-δεν υπάρχει; Ποια ήταν η κατάσταση με τα βαμπίρ στα ‘90s και σε ποιο σημείο ήταν η καριέρα του Tom Cruise; Τι σχέση έχει αυτή η ταινία με την σημερινή σειρά με το ίδιο όνομα; Και, τελικά, τι σχέση έχει αυτή η ταινία με το Υπάρχω και τον Στέλιο Καζαντζίδη; Αυτά και άλλα πολλά ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας!

Μετά την δημοφιλή σειρά για τις ταινίες του 1999, το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες ταξιδεύει και πάλι στα ‘90s για να επισκεφθεί αυτή τη φορά το 1994. Μια χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Forrest Gump και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία. Σήμερα, και καθώς το πρίκουελ Mufasa (σε σκηνοθεσία Barry Jenkins!) έρχεται σε λίγες μέρες στους κινηματογράφους, επισκεπτόμαστε το Pride Rock για να μιλήσουμε για το Lion King. Τι είναι αυτό που κάνει το Lion King να παραμένει μια αγέραστη μέχρι και σήμερα ταινία κινουμένων σχεδίων; Είναι η αυθεντικότητα του ζωγραφισμένου τοπίου; Είναι οι σαιξπηρικές αναφορές; Είναι τα τραγούδια του Elton John; Είναι το Hakuna Matata; Είναι η φωνή του Jeremy Irons; Είναι η φωνή του James Earl Jones; Είναι φυσικά όλα αυτά, αλλά πώς έφτιαξαν ένα αρμονικό αποτέλεσμα; Στο επεισόδιο, ανατρέχουμε στην απρόσμενα περίπλοκη διαδικασία δημιουργίας της ταινίας, που περιλάμβανε αλλαγές (και προσθήκες) σκηνοθετών και μια ριζική αλλαγή κατεύθυνσης για το πρότζεκτ. Ακούμε τον ηχητικό σχολιασμό των σκηνοθετών που αναλύουν πολλά από τα κρυμμένα μυστικά της καλλιτεχνικής επιτυχίας. Πόσο κοντά στο φιάσκο βρέθηκε η ταινία; Γιατί η «καλή» ομάδα των animators δούλευε στο Pocahontas αντί για αυτό; Πώς συνδέεται η επιτυχία του Lion King με εκείνη του Lilo & Stitch αλλά και με του Αυτοκράτορα που Έχει Κέφια; Ποιο τραγούδι θα έβγαινε παραλίγο εντελώς διαφορετικό; Γιατί παλεύουν έτσι ο Simba με τον Scar στο τέλος; Γιατί κοιτάζονται έτσι η Nala με τον Simba στη μέση; Και πώς αποφασίστηκε να ξεκινάει έτσι η ταινία στην αρχή; Αυτά και άλλα πολλά ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας!

Μετά τη δημοφιλή σειρά για τις ταινίες του 1999, το POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες ταξιδεύει και πάλι στα ‘90s για να επισκεφθεί αυτή τη φορά το 1994. Επόμενη στάση μας: Speed! Κάνοντας αναδρομή σε μία χρονιά με τεράστιες ταινίες που αγαπήθηκαν από το κοινό, από τους κριτικούς και από τα βραβεία, με διαχρονικές επιτυχίες από το Lion King και το Pulp Fiction, μέχρι το Chungking Express και την Κόκκινη Ταινία, φτάνουμε στο Speed - μία από τις καλύτερες, ή για πολλούς η καλύτερη, περιπέτεια των 1990s. Για πόσο καιρό διέσχιζε και γιγαντωνόταν στο box office το Speed και πώς κατέληξε ο Jan de Bont στη σκηνοθεσία της ταινίας; Ποια ήταν η πορεία του ήδη αναγνωρισμένου διευθυντή φωτογραφίας ως τότε και τι ακολούθησε στην καριέρα του; Γιατί διάλεξε τον Keanu Reeves για τον κεντρικό χαρακτήρα, έναν κάπως αναπάντεχο ως τότε action star, και σε τι φάση βρισκόταν η Sandra Bullock πριν το μεγάλο χιτ; Ποια ήταν η σκηνοθετική οδηγία για την προοπτική της κάμερας στο Speed που είχε ξεκινήσει από το Die Hard και ποιες σημαντικές παρεμβάσεις είχε κάνει ο Joss Whedon στο σενάριο; Επίσης, ποιος χαρακτήρας θα ήταν αρχικά ο κακός της υπόθεσης και πώς είχε αντιδράσει το κοινό στις δοκιμαστικές προβολές; Και τέλος πάντων, γιατί ο Keanu και η Sandra δεν έγιναν ζευγάρι στην αληθινή ζωή ενώ το ήθελαν και οι δύο; Αυτά και πολλά (πολλά!) ακόμη στο POP για τις Δύσκολες Ώρες αυτής της εβδομάδας!

Le terme manic pixie dream girl vous dit sûrement quelque chose, mais vous ne sauriez pas exactement le définir.Archétype redondant de la fiction et en soi, sexiste, la MPDG c'est à la fois Summer de 500 Days of Summer, Clémentine d'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Alaska d'Où es-tu Alaska?, Amélie Poulain ou encore Faye de Chungking Express.Mutines, espiègles et spontanées, ces personnages sont aussi définis par leurs goûts musicaux, étant semble-t-il, un tant soit peu ✨alternatifs, allant de The Smiths aux Cocteau Twins en passant par The Shins et Lana del Rey (donc peut-être pas si obscurs que ça).Alors, entre les goûts de cette MPDG, et cette dernière en tant que personnage principale de morceaux idéalisants (écrits par des hommes) ou juste descriptifs (écrits par des femmes), le Vinyle vous laisse embarquer dans un voyage vers la pop culture des 90s et des années 2000, entre Tumblr, romcoms cultes et morceaux torturés, afin de voir si ce sont les goûts musicaux qui définissent la Manic Pixie Dream Girl ou si c'est plutôt cette dernière qui influence la musique.

Wong Kar-Wai ist der zarte Melancholiker des Kinos: Verloren und orientierungslos gleiten die Protagonisten in „Chungking Express“ durch Hongkong. Halt gewährt lediglich ein Imbiss, der postmodernes Allerlei zubereitet und doch zu einer adhoc-Heimat werden kann. Erzählt wird die Geschichte zweier Cops, die die Liebe verloren haben und eine neue suchen. In der Kontingenz des Glücks ist alles möglich. Dieser moderne Film noir ist ein Klassiker des Weltkinos.

Because one multi-story film wasn't enough for us, here is another one. Cameron has a lot of thoughts on this one, so grab your Walkman as we listen to California Dreamin' for the 100th time and join us on this quest to decipher this Wong Kar-wai classic.

Welcome to episode eight of our series about memory and the movies that made us. This week, we're talking about hopeless romantics, crazy eyes, and yearning. This is the romance movie pod. God help us all. 'Chungking Express' (1994) and '500 Days of Summer' (2009).Hosted by Zack Miller and Stephen Williams

This week, Sam, Diana, and Christie delve into Wong Kar-wai's Chungking Express to close out this month's theme of bodies and the media. They discuss the movie's portrayal of longing, pining, and missed connections amidst the bustling backdrop of 1990s Hong Kong. They explore the film's representations of indirect communication, cultural identity, and the loneliness and nostalgia that permeate its narrative.  Bridges Mental Health connects Asian, Pacific Islander, South Asian Americans (APISA) with culturally responsive mental health professionals and resources.

This Warner Bros. 1947 Studios Year by Year episode features two gems that put their own particular slant on noir's familiar theme of murderous conflict between women and men: Curtis Bernhardt's Possessed, starring a more-than-usually deranged Joan Crawford, with Van Heflin as the rakish object of her obsession, and Delmer Daves' Dark Passage, starring an unusually passive Humphrey Bogart as a man convicted of killing his wife, with Lauren Bacall as an eccentric socialite who decides to help him. And in our Fear and Moviegoing segment, a real clash of moods: Ridley Scott's terrifying sci-fi/horror classic Alien and Wong Kar-wai's whimsical romantic comedy (of a sort) Chungking Express. Though admittedly it also has its terrifying aspects. (If only Van Heflin had been charmed by Crawford's fixation, how differently it could have gone!)  Time Codes: 0h 00m 35s:      POSSESSED [dir.

Discover why Paprika is a favorite of Sam's as she shares her own experiences with the movie and offers insight into the significance of Kon's work in Asian cinema.

Summer of Hong Kong continues, and today we're pivoting from the 80's and martial arts into the 90's and emotions! And who else could we be talking about but Wong Kar-wai and his 1994 breakthrough, CHUNGKING EXPRESS!While a touchstone for HK cinema today, Wong Kar-wai's big splash into the arthouse scene was anything but at the time. We're discussing how Wong found his way to his style leading up to CHUNGKING, how it captured the Hong Kong attitudes at such a precise moment, and the different relationship phases we recognized in these characters, in addition to highliighting Tony Leung's sad eyes.We're also connecting CHUNGKING EXPRESS to our previous HK movie, YES MADAM and 36TH CHAMBER OF SHAOLIN to chart just how we've arrived here. Plus, we get some some surprise foreshadowing for our next episode and the finale of our Hong Kong series: 2002's INFERNAL AFFAIRS!

Welcome to the 80's! We all remember the time: lime green overalls, bolo ties, and dynamite doppelgängers. That's right, Kung Fjune continues with the Hong Kong movie that kicked off the Girls with Guns genre: Corey Yuen's YES, MADAM! from 1985!It was the high-five heard around the world: Michelle Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock's first starring roles. We're running down just how much these two women could kick one's ass, especially Rothrock's Grand Master status and how she was cooking fools even as a teenager, and take some time to shout out our numerous cameo-filled trios of doofuses.Plus, Nick connects the threads from last episode's Shaw talk on our 36th Chamber episode to YES, MADAM!'s contemporary setting. This movie kicked off a lot of careers, many of which guided the action genre through the next few decades and we're here to celebrate that.Next time we're heading to the 90's for a different side of Hong Kong film: Wong Kar-wei's CHUNGKING EXPRESS!

Challenge #9 - "An Independent Film"Two melancholic Hong Kong policemen fall in love: one with a mysterious underworld figure, the other with a beautiful and ethereal server at a late-night restaurant he frequents.This one left us puzzled after the credits hit but one thing we knew for sure was we never wanted to hear California Dreamin' ever again. 

This episode was originally released May 17, 2021 This week we discuss the Wong Kar-Wai classic Chungking Express, the changing face of Hong Kong, stillness and transience, quirkiness and metaphor, and what a romantic comedy should be.   Chungking Express is a 1994 Hong Kong romantic crime comedy-drama film written and directed by Wong Kar-wai. The film consists of two stories told in sequence, each about a lovesick Hong Kong policeman mulling over his relationship with a woman. The first story stars Takeshi Kaneshiro as a cop obsessed with his breakup with a woman named May, and his encounter with a mysterious drug smuggler (Brigitte Lin). The second stars Tony Leung as a police officer roused from his gloom over the loss of his flight attendant girlfriend (Valerie Chow) by the attentions of a quirky snack bar worker (Faye Wong). "Chungking" in the title refers to Chungking Mansions in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, where Wong grew up in the 1960s. "Express" refers to the food stand Midnight Express, located in Lan Kwai Fong, an area in Central, Hong Kong.   I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha & Indy Randhawa

For Nora, immigrating to Canada was never easy. Parting ways from her old life in South Korea meant that she had to say many goodbyes to people she assumed she'd never see again.

Shot on a shoestring in six wild weeks, CHUNGKING EXPRESS is the movie that put legendary Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar Wai on the international map—along with his star, pop diva Faye Wong...and her Cantonese cover of The Cranberries's hit "Dreams."Host Rico Gagliano learns how the song, the director, and the singer all came together to capture Hong Kong at a moment of anxiety and hope—and how the tune still unites people in karaoke bars across Asia. Featuring Cranberries guitarist Noel Hogan, Hong Kong-born indiepop star Emma-Lee Moss (aka Emmy The Great), Variety and Artnet writer Vivienne Chow, "Chungking" score co-composer Roel A. Garcia, and NPR critic-at large John Powers—the author, with Wong Kar Wai, of "WKW: The Cinema of Wong Kar Wai."The third season of the MUBI Podcast, titled “Needle on the Record,” dives into the unifying power of movie music and tells the stories behind some of cinema's most renowned “needle drops”—moments where filmmakers deployed pre-existing music instead of an original score. Each episode explores an iconic marriage of song and image that's become part of pop culture. It's a six-part mixtape for film lovers.CHUNGKING EXPRESS is now streaming on MUBI in India, the Netherlands, Latin America, and many other countries.SWITCHBLADE SISTERS is streaming on MUBI in the UK, Ireland, Canada, and the US.

Cette semaine dans AMIES, Anaïs et Marie regardent Chungking Express (1994), réalisé par Wong Kar-wai. Le réalisateur hongkongais est aussi à l'origine de In the Mood for Love, l'un des films romantiques préférés d'Anaïs et Marie. À Hong Kong, Chungking Express raconte les histoires parallèles de deux policiers qui retombent amoureux après une rupture. Dans la première partie, le matricule 223 (Takeshi Kaneshiro) noie son chagrin dans un bar et décide de tomber amoureux de la première femme (Brigitte Lin) qui y entrera. Dans la seconde partie, le matricule 663 (Tony Leung Chiu-wai) se rapproche de Faye (Faye Wong), une serveuse du fast-food qu'il fréquente. Anaïs a t-elle trouvé le film romantique? Comment tient-il la comparaison avec les comédies romantiques américaines? Était-elle contente de retrouver Tony Leung? Après la découverte de Friends par Anaïs puis de Twin Peaks par Marie, les deux amies vont, à tour de rôle, explorer deux genres du cinéma: les films d'horreur et les films romantiques. Cris, rires et larmes sont au programme.

This acclaimed 90s foreign flick tells two tales of lovesick policemen in Hong Kong who frequent the same takeout joint. Does putting two stylish stories together add to the intrigue, or just the confusion? We more or less discuss if more is less or less is more.

This week we are honored to have J.J. Bersch, researcher for ‘Blank Check with Griffin & David', on as a guest to discuss Wong Kar-wai's 1995 classic ‘Fallen Angels.' We try our best to not turn this into a ‘Chungking Express' episode. (But, we don't try THAT hard.) Some ‘In The Mood For Love' slips in there too. But, how can Wong's other work not slip in when it's that good?? This week is the definition of a REAL. GOOD. TIME. You can find J.J. on Twitter @jjdotbiz and you can find his research work on 'Blank Check with Griffin & David.'
