Championed by Quentin Tarantino, who swore he cried for joy the first time he saw CHUNGKING EXPRESS, the film blazed a trail through the West for director Wong Kar-wai and his star Tony Leung. Blending pathos with quirky and daring visual stylization, it remains one of the hottest cult titles of all time and a signature piece in the careers of both Wong and Leung. Two fragmented stories of cops with broken hearts collide in the Hong Kong night in the neon-lit maze of malls, bars, and food stalls. Cop 663 (Leung) nurses the pain of being dumped by a stewardess, unaware that a fast-food server is stalking him. (BS) Screened in 2005 as part of Tony Leung: A Star for the Cutting Edge
