Chongqing Forest |Where in this world are there so many two loves?

The 008th article in the Electric Illusion series is about love. Love is complex, and this complexity is reflected in Wong Kar Wai's movie.

Fear, anticipation, timidity, longing, delusion, deliberation, and regret are all mixed up in his movie stories, and you can see the person you used to be, or the person you used to be in love with, in each of these emotions.

I used to think that love has to be about two people, but how can there be so many two people in this world?

Most of the time it is a state of chase, you chase me and I chase him, he chases her and she chases him, and this chase in Wong Kar Wai's "Chongqing Forest" expressed the most.

"Chongqing Forest" tells the story of two people who are in love, you chasing me, and the first to appear is the blonde girl, Brigitte Lin, and the lovelorn policeman, Takeshi Kaneshiro.

The opening of the movie will leave you with some doubts as to how such a newly lovelorn armed policeman and a drug-dealing woman will cross paths. After watching it, you have to admire Wong Kar-wai's powerful articulation of storytelling.

Takeshi Kaneshiro's police officer 223 in the movie has just fallen out of love. The lovelorn Takeshi still maintains the same habits as when he was in love, and even though he knows that he can't wait, he comes to wait for May to get off work every day. For fear of missing May's call, he stays in front of the telephone every day.

The password he set for his 368 duplicator is "love you for 10,000 years".

The movie's narrator says, "Everyone falls out of love, and every time I fall out of love, I go for a run, because running evaporates the water in your body and makes me less prone to tears, so how can I shed tears? In May's mind, I'm a cool guy."

See here all can not help but for this infatuation and handsome male police officer heartache a little, who said that the loss of love when crying bitterly is the only thing to make people difficult, there are times to cry not to make people more upset.

Every place you pass by and every person you see, you associate it with something related to her, and so does Wu. When he goes to the supermarket to buy a can of pineapple, the lovelorn and sensitive man realizes that the expired stuff will be thrown away.

"I don't know when it started, there's a date on top of everything, the okonomiyaki expires, the paté expires, even the clingfilm expires. I'm beginning to wonder what else in this world doesn't expire?"

Perhaps realizing that love can expire, Takeshi gives himself a deadline when he buys 30 full cans of pineapple that expire on May 1, and if she doesn't come back he will give up on the relationship.

Thirty days later, his girlfriend didn't come back, so Takeshi ate the 30 cans of pineapple he bought that were about to expire and planned to go to a bar to get drunk.

The story goes on for so long that Takeshi and the drug-dealing girl are just starting to meet, but unfortunately they are destined to be separated just as soon as they meet.

Takeshi is sitting in a bar when he meets a blonde (Brigitte Lin) with sunglasses.

She's been chased by a group of people all day, so naturally she's not in the mood to hang around with this lovelorn and boyish man. Maybe it's the alcohol, or maybe she's just too tired, she tells Takeshi that she wants to go to a hotel to rest. And Takeshi didn't realize that she really just wanted to rest. Lin Qingxia sleeps on one side, and Takeshi watches TV and eats on the other side.

Takeshi, a police officer, helps the blonde take off her heels, and he leaves after a night of companionship. The reason for helping her take off her heels is that Takeshi's mom had told him that if a woman sleeps in high heels, her feet will swell up the next day.

And early that morning which happened to be Takeshi's birthday, the sky was raining heavily and Takeshi was panting and running. Suddenly the BB machine started paging him and Takeshi ran to the phone booth in a hurry, drenched in rain.

On the other end of the phone, the blonde who he met all night said Happy Birthday to him. On this day, only this woman had said this to him. Not May, not a friend, but her.

The first story comes to a close at Happy Birthday, perhaps a little abruptly, but it makes sense that such a strange and short-lived love affair might end here.

The second love story begins inside the fast-food restaurant where Takeshi often calls. 663, who is also a police officer, comes to the fast-food restaurant every day to buy chef's salad for his girlfriend, and one day the store owner persuades him to buy some other flavors for his girlfriend, and then one day, 663 doesn't buy any more food for his girlfriend.

The store owner asked why he stopped buying it, and 663 said, "Even food can be tried in a different flavor, let alone a boyfriend."

663 fell out of love, and Fei, who was helping her cousin at the store, slowly developed a crush on the cop during their daily meetings. Faye loves loud music and dances while cleaning tables at work, and she can't help but look at 663 a little more every time he comes over.

Naturally, it was hard for the lovelorn 663 to feel Afi's affections, and he was busy comforting the sad furniture, dolls and rags, soaps and clothes in his house every day. Every item stained with the flavor of his ex-girlfriend makes 663 lost. Objects don't carry feelings, so it's 663 himself who's really sad.

Suddenly, one day, the female pilot comes to their store and leaves a letter and the key to the police house. Naturally, the lovelorn 663 doesn't want to read the letter that makes him even more sad, so the letter stays in Faye's hands.

Fei took this opportunity to sneak into the policeman's house with the key, cleaning his room and decorating the house for him. In the place where his favorite person lives, you can smell the smell of 663, Afi is happy every day. And because of her own little game of adventure, Faye feels stimulated and excited.

But slowly, the police 663 found something wrong. The original skinny soap became fat, the original tattered towel changed its look, the original white bear was replaced by a cloth tiger, and the shirt moved ......

663 did not understand why these things changed, until one day, his house flooded with water.

"I don't know if I forgot to turn off the faucet or if the house was just getting attached. I always thought it was the strongest, I didn't realize it cried the most. When a person cries, all you have to do is give them a pack of tissues, but when a house cries, you have to do a lot more work.

Just as 663 was taking care of the hygiene of his house, Faye, who was holding the goldfish, opened the door of his house. Faye panics and 663 seems to sense something, so he lets Faye, who is pretending to have a leg pain, into the house. The two sat on the couch in the house, listened to the music that Afi had changed, and slowly fell asleep.

It was expected that the two of them would be able to get together from here, but the movie just doesn't let you.

The spoilers are pretty much over here, so guess what happens to Faye and cop 663 in the end?

This movie is suitable to watch on a rainy day, although it talks a lot about lost love, but inexplicably there is a kind of healing therapeutic effect to cure people.

Love is not two lovers only beautiful, even if it is a person in love can also be very romantic.
