In the mood for love

The prequel to 2046, in the mood for love, is directed by Wong Kar Wai. Maybe this one of the best movies ever made. It has the power to find beauty in every little thing in life. You will be stunned by the beauty how two people can pass eachother. Beauty will be found in the cigarette smoke (if you want to get smoking of the screen you must be complete crazy or an American), the way she seeks shelter from the rain, even in holding a phone. Well there would be 1000 or more examples to give. Every frame of this movie could be eternalized in a poster or a painting. Only the really brilliant directors can achieve this.
The clothing makes it even more beautiful, every dress is so extreme gorgeous. Those typical Shanghai dresses from the sixties are probably the most fantastic dresses ever made, so much colour, so beautiful design. It's the same with the Japanese Kimono's, you wish people would still wear them.
Well last but not least I have to say a few things about the actors. Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung act fantastic. Those two beautiful people really bring the movie alive. Even it's a sad story they give you a feeling of 'in the mood for love'. Love can be so beautiful, love can be so sad. Their acting is so intense, it's catches you and doesn't let you go till the very end.

Some people may think this movie is a bit broing, but in fact it is the opposite. If you are ready to let this movie grab you and take and swirl you in a world of melancholy, beauty and pure emotion you will end up with the one perfect feeling in your heart. the feeling of true beauty.
