Movies watched: May 02, part 2

For the month of May, I was able to watch 22 films of which I focused more on works specifically in South East Asia and China. The Asian countries covered: China, one each from the Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam, three from Thailand, and two from South Korea. This also includes work by Zhang Yimou (3 films) and Wong Kar Wai (4 films).
