In the mood for love

i had watched the movie, "The Days of being wild" by Wong-Kar-Wai...
frankly i neither understood the movie nor was impressed...

but took this movie over the weekend and i am happy that i watched this movie.
this is one of the best romantic movies (in it's own unique way) i've watched. ofcourse, according to me :)

there are no lengthy dialogues... infact there is no single moment of expression of love in words.

still was able to understand the feelings that flow between them. i liked the scene where they rehearse about asking their spouses about the affair...
and the best one was when he says about his singapore trip, she cries and then he asks her whether she'll come if there is an extra ticket.

i am not sure why she hesitates and never goes with him to singapore... she should've gone.

also it's really sad that he misses meeting her on his visit to hongkok...

the direction is very good...also the usage of colors (i donot know what this is called) and the scenes...it's a very light, slow paced movie...
