My Blueberry Nights 藍莓之夜

[skylee]

The film is directed by HK directer Wong Kar Wai. The main actors include Norah Jones, Jude Law, Rachel Weisz, Natalie Portman. I saw it today and I think it is very likeable. A nice surprise is the appearance of the theme music of "In the mood for love" (I like that scene).

But many people seem to think that the story is similar to "Chungking Express", which I don't like much. Some of Wong's films are too difficult for me. "My Blueberry Nights" is simple and easy and a beautiful time killer.

Has anyone else seen it?

I noticed the posters for this movie last month and I definitely want to see this when I get back. Norah is a cutie and the other 2 aren't too bad either.

And the guy is cute too.

In that case, maybe you'd like the poster this way.

Actually what we see on screen is something like the one in #1 turned 90 degrees anticlockwise.

The nice surprise in the film -> Yumeji's Theme (Harmonica Version) [click to listen, wherever you are]

i've seen it...hoho, i like Norah Jones' music.......the plot, well, just the routine of Wong's.

Someone I know asked me who the girl on the poster was, saying that she was soooooo beautiful, not knowing that it was Norah Jones.

Luckily the story is so routine, otherwise I wouldn't understand it.

Completely agree. It's a far cry from In the Mood for Love (but then again which movie isn't?), but enjoyable to watch. The story is simple enough, but not annoyingly so, and beautifully filmed - I like the way Wong focuses on colors and lets shapes recede (although he did overdo the blurs a bit, I think.)

And yes, Norah Jones does look good
