2046
At once tremendously dense and gossamer-thin, this period romance/sci-fi hybrid from Hong Kong auteur Wong Kar-Wai is a riot of sight and sound that has an irresistible, elemental pull.

"...by: John Woo. Starring: Chow Yun-Fat, Danny Lee, Chu Kong and Sally Yeh. Love is strange; in The Killer,..."
