Fallen Angels

"There are some people you can never get close to. Get too close, and you'll find him boring." Fallen Angels explores emptiness, alienation, and life in the cold, big, dark city*(Hongkong). * Michele Reis is truly represent of film's title, Fallen Angels, oh god she is erotic and graceful, hot in a unique way. And i love the way the plot has Michelle Reis ending up with Takeshi Kaneshiro, who is the other Fallen Angels. The definiton Fallen Angels is symbolizes character who have fallen from state of grace, comfort, or conventional society. They are *lost souls wandering a dark, chaotic, and neon-drenched city yearning for connection but unable to sustain it.* The background of nightlife Hongkong feels cold, isolated, lonely, and empty, creating a pervasive feeling among all the character. It's a dark place and to search for reason or connection. The fast cinematography and distorted visuals, convey a feeling of alienation, paranoia, disorientation to the audience. The film's visuals are super gloomy and dark, but it doesn't overdo it, because the background in Fallen Angels is always dark/night, some scenes feel like a brainstorm in your mind, making your brain wonder all the time. Big applause for The Best Asian Director himself Wong kar-wai.
