具体描述
The long-awaited retrospective from the internationally renowned film director celebrated for his visually lush and atmospheric films. Wong Kar Wai is known for his romantic and stylish films that explore—in saturated, cinematic scenes—themes of love, longing, and the burden of memory. His style reveals a fascination with mood and texture, and a sense of place figures prominently. In this volume, the first on his entire body of work, Wong Kar Wai and writer John Powers explore Wong's complete oeuvre in the locations of some of his most famous scenes.
The book is structured as six conversations between Powers and Wong (each in a different locale), including the restaurant where he shotIn the Mood for Love and the snack bar where he shot Chungking Express. Discussing each of Wong's eleven films—fromAs Tears Go By and Days of Being Wild to 2046 and The Grandmaster—the conversations also explore Wong's trademark themes of time, nostalgia, and beauty, and their roots in his personal life.
The first book by Wong Kar Wai, and the first comprehensive look at his oeuvre, this stunning, lavishly illustrated volume is as evocative as walking into one of Wong's lush films. With more than 250 photographs and film stills and an opening critical essay by Powers, this volume is poised to become the film book of the year.

##印象较深的几个点：墨镜对明星魅力的钟爱，对拉美文学的热情，对《春光乍泄》政治含义的解释，和他讲述的梁朝伟这二十多年的成长历程
评分##花样年华算是为我打开电影大门的第一部电影
评分##隔了一年多终于翻完了。由于我对WKW的印象仍然停留在他拖延以及不靠谱上所以当我看到他自己对春光乍泄电影寓意的时候竟然觉得很扯… 还有Fallen Angels竟然是因为李嘉欣演技不好所以用那样的拍摄手法笑到我了 收藏收藏！
评分##任你如何模仿，这世上就那么一个王家卫，浪了一生的王家卫。

评分##任你如何模仿，这世上就那么一个王家卫，浪了一生的王家卫。
评分##王用了一个我不认识的英文单词。
评分##有料且裝幀美好，收藏佳品，看得停不下來。the true self of an artist can never be copied，所以能窺探到墨鏡的創作心態，已經很滿足了。加上一些有趣的邊角八卦，very enjoyable book。還有作者雖然還是有點太西方思維以致有時get不到王家衛電影裡某些東方元素，但整體而言非常懂行且有品味。btw 跟natives的英文寫作一對比我覺得我的是災難啊啊啊
评分##拖最久的一本书，因为实在太沉了。。终于看完了，墨镜真是可爱的小天才。
