I have heard of this movie a long time ago. I often browse Weibo and see that it is included in the movie recommendations, but I have never watched it. Maybe the title of the movie cannot impress me. I was having dinner with a girl a few days ago. She highly recommended Chungking Express and said she had watched it 10 times. This aroused my strong curiosity. What kind of movie can I watch more than ten times? So I watched it again. After watching it, I understood the act of watching a movie repeatedly.

The following is my feeling after watching it only once. Maybe I won’t feel the same after watching it again. Everyone can more or less find their own shadow in the forest.

Takeshi Kaneshiro - a humble character with a sense of love ritual

Takeshi was broken up by his girlfriend of five years, Amei, on April Fool’s Day. He thought it was a joke and didn’t take it seriously. Taking one month as the deadline, if Amei really does not come back on his birthday on May 1st, then this relationship will expire. During this month, he went to buy a can of Amei’s favorite canned pineapple every day, which expired on May 1st.

Awu likes to share everything about his life with Amei, whether joyful or sad. In his relationship with Amei, he is a humble one. Amei likes cool boys. He just pretends to be strong and never cries. A-mei likes to eat pineapples, but actually he likes to eat durians, but what he bought was pineapples. Love is inherently equal. If you underestimate yourself, the relationship will be unbalanced and unstable, and sooner or later it will expire and end.

Awu believes that love never expires, people cannot like the new and dislike the old, and women will wait for the person they love.

During his one-month healing period after a broken love, he tried to win back his sister in the early stage, and then tried to start a new relationship to get rid of the pain of broken love. In the end, he could only heal himself and numb himself through running. .

He waited for A-mei at the fast food restaurant she passed by after get off work every day, hoping to meet her, but A-mei never appeared, as if she had disappeared from his world. He called A-mei’s house and pretended to be looking for her family. He also told A-mei not to tell A-mei that he had called. In fact, A-mei’s parents didn’t like him. When he went to A-mei’s house, he always climbed onto the balcony and never left. After passing the gate, Amei's parents quickly ended the phone call by saying they were rushing to watch a movie. A-mei's friend A-ming, who is the same as A-mei, called him. He thought it was A-mei asking A-ming to call him, but it was not the case. Finally, he called A-mei directly, but a man answered the call. He knew that A-mei had a new boyfriend.

This is what many people will do after being broken up, trying to save the relationship that has ended. Then enter the second stage, find ways to start a new relationship.

He called all the women he had contact with. They were either married, or they didn't remember him at all. The owner of the fast food restaurant told Awu that the girl in the store had always liked him, but Awu didn't like her and refused. The next day, Awu came to the fast food restaurant to make an appointment with Amei, who worked in the store, but Amei was already dating someone else. The owner of the fast food restaurant told him that women can't wait, and if you like it, you should come early.

If you want to start a new relationship quickly, you often start with the people around you. But often people will not always stand there waiting for you, especially women. Youth is so short that they cannot afford to wait. There was no possibility of knowing anyone around him, so he tried to find strangers.

On April 30, Awu finished thirty cans of pineapples, ran to the bar to drink, and told himself that he would like the woman who came in in the next minute.

Brigitte Lin happened to come in wearing sunglasses and a raincoat. Ah Wu came to Brigitte Lin. She was a very mysterious woman. It was hard to tell where she was from, so Ah Wu asked Brigitte Lin whether she liked eating pineapples in various languages, Cantonese, Japanese, English, and finally in Mandarin. Brigitte Lin replied to him He speaks Mandarin pretty well. Ah Wu immediately offered to sit next to Brigitte Lin, introduced that she was from Taiwan, and then began to speculate that Brigitte Lin came to the bar alone because she was lonely. She wore sunglasses because she didn't want others to see her eyes that were swollen from crying due to a broken love.

He told Brigitte Lin that falling out of love was normal, comforted Brigitte Lin that there was no need to cry so sadly, and told Brigitte Lin that he had also fallen out of love. He went for a run in the morning so that the excess water in his body could evaporate and he would not shed tears.

In this section in the bar, Awu was basically talking, like a simple little boy. He told that the reason why he broke up with A-mei was that A-mei said that he didn’t understand her at all, so when he met Brigitte Lin, he talked to her a lot and wanted to understand this mysterious woman. People tend to sum up their experiences from the previous relationship, and then make up for these shortcomings in the next relationship, but people are different and the rules are different.

They sat at the bar until closing time. Brigitte Lin was too tired and asked to find a place to rest. The scene switched to a hotel room. Ah Wu was watching a Cantonese feature film. There were many French fries on the table, while Brigitte Lin was sleeping deeply on the bed. When it was almost dawn, Awu helped Brigitte Lin clean the dirty high heels with his tie, and then left. Lin Qingxia woke up immediately, looking at Takeshi Kaneshiro crossing the street downstairs from the window, and left a message on his call machine, happy birthday.

Awu thought he would not receive messages from anyone on his birthday today, but he was surprised to receive birthday wishes from Brigitte Lin. Because of this sentence, he said he would always remember this woman. If memory is a can, I hope this can will never expire; if I must add a date, I hope it will be "ten thousand years".

The last stage is self-healing. Awu goes running every day. He has no friends in this forest and is very lonely. He can only rely on self-healing when he is broken in love, and the most successful way to heal the pain of broken love is Therapy is self-healing.

Awu, who is lovelorn, has experienced: trying to recover - starting a new relationship - self-healing (time will take away everything). I believe that many people have gone through that painful experience like this, and there are too many people who are cautious in love, love humblely, and take themselves too lightly, too lightly, as low as dust, but they still open up. There are no flowers, but love is equal, and the love between oak and kapok will be long-lasting.

Brigitte Lin - a poor woman who fell in love so much that she completely lost herself

Brigitte Lin in the film is often very unstable and blurry. At first, I was confused as to why it was so wobbly. The technical level was too low, and the camera couldn't even be held steady. But after watching the entire film, I completely despised my previous thoughts.

I think Brigitte Lin is a person who loves so much that she loses herself, and then all love is replaced by all hatred. In the end, she is freed and kills the person she once loved deeply.

Brigitte Lin is in the film. She is a mainlander, but she wears a blond wig, speaks fluent English, and always wears a strange outfit like a raincoat and sunglasses. According to her own words, she has no A sense of security, because the world changes so fast, you don’t know whether it will be sunny or rainy next.

Brigitte Lin’s weird outfit is all because of the person she loves? (the foreign man in the bar in the film) only likes foreign women with short blond hair. Because the bar girl wears a blond wig, she will turn the foreign man into a woman. It can be seen after being lured over, so Brigitte Lin wears a blond wig and speaks fluent English. In order to prevent others from seeing her black oriental beautiful eyes, she wears sunglasses. The foreign man asked the bar girl to go out to buy cigarettes, but it was raining heavily outside, so the bar girl did not go. And Lin Qingxia, wearing a raincoat, can go out to buy cigarettes for foreign men in the heavy rain at any time.

Brigitte Lin not only changed her appearance for the foreign man, but also helped him sell drugs. After being deceived by a few Indians, I urgently need to find those Indians before May 1st, otherwise my life will be in danger. She inquired all the way and finally kidnapped the daughter of a shop owner (an Indian). She called the shop owner and threatened him to tell him the information within an hour, otherwise he would never see his daughter. In fact, Brigitte Lin took her daughter to a place that was supposed to be McDonald's and took her to eat ice cream. This was not the behavior of a real drug dealer at all. The Indian told her what she knew, and he also knew that a group of people were chasing her, and they were from the foreign male faction (this is purely speculation). He was chased all the way and ran a long way with his high heels dirty. Finally he got rid of the Indians and came to a bar where he met Takeshi Kaneshiro.

Then, Brigitte Lin used a cat to lure the foreign man out of the bar. The reason for using the cat was that Brigitte Lin knew him well and knew that he liked cats, and then shot the foreign man. Brigitte Lin took off her wig and left with a smile.

Having said so much, it can almost explain why many scenes involving Brigitte Lin are chaotic, shaking, and blurry. Because Brigitte Lin blindly lost herself for love, the real Brigitte Lin is vague. She sells drugs but is also very kind, so this is very contradictory. Her heart is in chaos, and she has not completely lost herself. Her heart is extremely unstable. , so the screen is very shaken and unstable.

In the forest (a way of saying the city), there are a lot of people like Brigitte Lin who meet unkind people, are deceived, love blindly, love to the point of losing themselves, and in the end love turns to hate. However, you can still find your original self, but the price is high. Brigitte Lin killed the foreign man, and how can you go back and find your true self when you are lost?

If you lose yourself in love, then this love is not a good one and will most likely end in tragedy; and if you think about changing someone, then you don’t love this person. , because if you really love him, you won't think about changing him. Of course, the change mentioned here is to transform the other party according to your own preferences and force the other party to become what you want.

Therefore, in love, just be yourself and love the real person.

Tony Leung - You will always find love that suits you

Tony Leung is a patrol policeman in the film, code-named 663. He successfully picked up a very beautiful flight attendant. He liked her very much and thought it was a fully fueled plane that could fly very far, but he didn't expect to change stops midway.

Every night Tony Leung went to a fast food restaurant to buy supper for his girlfriend, and it was always the chef's salad. Because his girlfriend didn't say she liked or disliked Chef's Salad, the owner of the fast food restaurant suggested to him that he try something different, fish and chips. Tony Leung was worried that his girlfriend wouldn't like it, so the boss asked him to buy a Chef's Salad and a fried fish. fries. The next day, Tony Leung went to buy a late-night snack again, asking for fish and chips, and the boss recommended hot dogs. The third time I went to buy something, I only ordered black coffee and no midnight snack because my girlfriend left.

"It's been a week and you still haven't come back?"

"Maybe she really has many choices outside."

"Then don't wait any longer , she chooses hers, you choose yours."

"Just change it? Just take your time."

The above is the conversation between Tony Leung and the owner of the fast food restaurant. . His girlfriend is a flight attendant, she is very beautiful, and has many choices, while Tony Leung is just a patrolman, and he is a person who does not give up on a relationship easily.

Tony Leung is a person who does not pay attention to the details of the surrounding environment, but he is definitely a very considerate person to his girlfriend. He massages his girlfriend's calves every day because the stewardess is very miserable; he buys supper for his girlfriend every night and stays at home. What a good man, don’t you think so?

Tony Leung went to a fast food restaurant to buy coffee and met Faye Wong, who was helping her cousin (fast food restaurant owner) and saving money to travel to California. Faye Wong fell in love with him at first sight. There was loud music that Faye Wong liked playing in the store, and the two of them almost shouted when they talked. Tony Leung couldn't stand it and asked her to turn it off.

Faye Wong once went to the market to buy a large basket of vegetables and met Tony Leung eating at a roadside stall. Tony Leung helped her move back to the fast food restaurant. On the way, Faye Wong asked for Tony Leung's home address on the pretext that she wanted to send him a letter left by Tony Leung's stewardess girlfriend.

Next, Faye Wong secretly entered Tony Leung's house and replaced many things, including CDs, sheets, cups, soaps, goldfish, dolls, cans, clothes, towels... Tony Leung found nothing special about these. , and Faye Wong appeared from time to time in the area where Tony Leung was patrolling, pretending to meet him by chance.

Once, Tony Leung suddenly felt that his girlfriend was back. He ran home and found Faye Wong inside, but Tony Leung did not notice it. Well, maybe this means that you can't see people you don't love.

Once again, Faye Wong stood at the door of Tony Leung's house with a goldfish. Tony Leung happened to open the door and bumped into her. He asked her why she was here. Faye Wong said she was buying a goldfish because she was afraid that the person she loved would find out that she was even lying. It's so fake. Faye Wong said that she was scared when she saw Tony Leung. In fact, she was afraid that her thoughts would be discovered, and what she was even more afraid of was that the person she loved would reject her. She was so frightened that she had cramps in her legs, so Tony Leung let her in and massaged her calves (this scene was so cute, woohoo~~~). Faye Wong felt at ease and comfortable and fell asleep on the sofa, with Tony Leung sitting next to her. I fell asleep unconsciously when I got down.

The last time, Faye Wong was found naked at Tony Leung's house. She panicked and jumped out of the window to escape. From this, Tony Leung discovered Faye Wong's thoughts, and during this period of time, he gradually fell in love with the CDs replaced by Faye Wong. I went to a fast food restaurant and asked Faye Wong to go to the California Bar at 8pm. Faye Wong didn't agree in person, but she was very happy all day long and hurriedly finished her work in advance.

And Tony Leung put on the plaid shirt that Faye Wong left in the closet and dressed up carefully. This is exactly what is said to please oneself. He arrived at California Bar half an hour early, changed his change, ordered snacks and waited slowly, preparing for the date. But it was eight o'clock and Faye Wong didn't come. Faye Wong never showed up that night.

The next day, he went to the fast food restaurant and asked the boss. The boss told him that Faye Wong had gone to California and would not come back. Tony Leung said that it wasn't that she didn't go last night, she just went to the wrong place and went to another California.

A year later, he met Faye Wong again. Faye Wong became a stewardess, and he was wearing a plaid shirt and playing the loud music that Faye Wong played at that time while decorating a fast food restaurant.

Faye Wong - bravely pursues her love

Faye Wong is just like her in real life in the film, with personality and bravery for love. In the paragraph describing Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Faye Wong's various deeds have basically been written. Here is a detail.

Faye Wong accidentally met Tony Leung Chiu-wai (who intended to visit the area where Tony Leung was inspecting) and saw a beautiful woman with long hair smiling at Tony Leung and grabbed a handful of the woman's hair (here It was because she found a woman's hair with a magnifying glass on Tony Leung's bed), and the woman immediately left in pain and disgust. Faye Wong said something to Tony Leung, it was so cool. He immediately felt that he shouldn't be so impulsive. He was afraid that he had misunderstood Tony Leung. It would be embarrassing if they were friends and knew each other. Then he asked again, "Know?" Faye Wong was relieved when she got the reply that she didn't know her.

This small detail shows that Faye Wong began to be jealous unconsciously, fearing that Tony Leung would fall in love with other women, and was very sensitive to the women who appeared around him.

Next, let’s talk about why Faye Wong went to the wrong place.

In fact, Faye Wong finished her work early that night and she was very happy. Perhaps the happiest thing for a woman is when the person she loves asks her out. She arrived at the California Bar at a quarter past seven, but it was raining outside. She suddenly wanted to know if it was sunny in California on the other side, so she went to California in the United States.

The reason why Faye Wong ran away temporarily was that she was very scared and was not sure whether Tony Leung liked her, because at this time she was not what Tony Leung liked. She had short hair, looked like a tomboy, and had a personality Also carefree. She was so scared that she ran away. She left him a boarding pass written in strokes for a year's time. If Tony Leung really loved her, he would find her. She was not sure that Tony Leung would come to her. She was taking a gamble. However, the letter containing the boarding pass was thrown into the trash can by Tony Leung and was soaked by the rain. After picking it up and drying it, the address column was no longer visible.

A year later, Faye Wong came back and met Tony Leung who was renovating the restaurant. Asked her if California was fun, she said it was just that. Tony Leung asked her if she wanted to eat. She had to fly abroad when she returned. Tony Leung said that he should let her write a letter to him, but Faye Wong said, even if you write it, you won’t read it. Then Tony Leung took out the boarding pass that Faye Wong left for him a year ago and asked her if Faye Wong would let him board the plane if he got such a boarding pass. He said that the address was blurred, so he didn't know where to board the plane.

Here he explained to Faye Wong why he didn't go to find her, because he didn't know where to go to find her. At this moment, Faye Wong said, let me give you a new one and asked Tony Leung where he wanted to go. Tony Leung replied, go wherever you go.

At this point, the video ends.

In this huge forest of the city, in whom do you see your own shadow?
