winner of the best director prize at the 1997 cannes film festival, wong kar-wai's happy together is a cinematic balancing act, a stunning display of filmmaking style and a touching love story evenly mixed into one film. hong kong and world cinema have never seen anything quite like it.
tony leung and leslie cheung, two of hong kong's biggest stars, play a pair of gay lovers living out the waning days of their relationship as expatriates in buenos aires. together with australian christopher doyle, kar-wai's longtime cinematographer, the director discovers a city rich with diverse cultural influences. happy together reveals a corner of the world alive with intimate colors and an astounding array of sounds. even more striking, though, is the way that such an international collaboration brings to life a romance that is both ralistic and universal. ho and lai are characters who are instantly identifiable, who play the roles and experience the dynamics that all couples go through in the course of a relationship.
lusty tango bars, the salsa music of the la boca sicewalks, and a hypnotic visit to the nearby iguazu falls give further dimension to the tensions growing between the two lovers.
