Chungking Express

Chungking Express is a defining film of 1990s cinema that established Wong Kar Wai as an iconic director. The story follows two lovesick Hong Kong cops, played by Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung Chiu Wai, who both find themselves heartbroken by their ex-lovers. Their paths cross at the Midnight Express take-out food stand, where the enchanting waitress Faye, portrayed by Faye Wong, works. This beautifully shot film is a delightful and unexpected charmer that solidified the allure of its stunning stars and transformed canned pineapple and the Mamas & the Papas’ California Dreamin’ into symbols of romantic yearning.
