" Date: 9/20/2020 Viewed: Criterion Channel Re-Watch Note: I haven't seen this movie in years and it still holds up very well. Happy Together is one of those movies that I feel like watching again right after it ends. I still prefer Fallen Angels (1995) and 2046 (2004), but Happy Together is still a fantastic movie nevertheless. I do consider Happy Together to be one of the best LGBT movies of the 1990s in my opinion. The cinematography from Christopher Doyle is breathtaking because I always"

" Cast : Leslie Cheung, Tony Leung What was it about? A couple take a trip to Argentina but both men find their lives drifting apart in opposite directions. My two cents: Well, I really enjoyed the damned thing. Indeed, for this movie, Won Kar-Wai mixed one of his usual doomed love stories with a film noir and this mix was quite spellbinding to behold.

“I already saw this movie but since it was such a long time ago, I was really eager to check it out again. Well, I really enjoyed the damned thing. Indeed, for this movie, Won Kar-Wai mixed one of his usual doomed love stories with a film noir and this mix was quite spellbinding to behold.

"Evocative relationship drama, without the 'melodrama'. Wong Kar-Wei knows how to make 'em. What's interesting is this is often hailed as the most critically decorated queer-interest indie film of all time, yet Kai-Wei has often expressed his reluctance to consider this a 'special interest' picture. It doesn't matter that the events are hatched out between two males, ANY relationship can be hopelessly doomed as this one, when the emotional distance is so encompassing.

" I'm not sure if the level of esteem I hold for this film is quite the same as when I first saw it. But one thing stayed constant - that is Christopher Doyle's highly impressive cinematography. Despite my soft spot for the film, the much revered In the Mood for Love will probably be the one that gets the greenlight so I'm not getting my hopes up for this one."
