Movies watched: January 08, Part 3 of 3

February 14th, 2008

January 2008 was a bit productive with around 22 full feature films and 3 shorts (under Eros) that have been watched either in theaters and, mostly, at home. 11 came from North America with two from Canada, the rest from the US. Four from Europe: UK, France, Italy and Spain. The last is set in Canada and acted Canadians but produced in Spain with a Spanish lady director. Asia is represented by 2 Japanese films (the second a sequel), Thai, my second film watched from Thailand (the first was in Bangkok which was Nang Nak). Of course, I had a marathon movie watching, all by one of my favorite directors: Wong Kar Wai.

I had my own mini film festival of Wong Kar Wai films! While I have already watched In the Mood for Love and 2046 many years ago, I watched the former again. I’m still looking for copies of 2046, Ashes of Time, Fallen Angels and As Tears Go By. Eros, by the way, is three shorts, with the other two done by different directors. Of the three, WKW’s is the best.
