It's very well written and directed, but it looks like a more contained work that wants to be pleasing enough to be acknowledged.

Probably my favourite WKW as it feels the most powerful and complete of his films on tainted love. The waterfall shots will make your soul cry.

It's maddening to watch these two dig their heels deeper into this unhealthy hovel they call a relationship. I love the effervescence of Wong's previous romantic idylls, but compared to those, this is downright cynical, and probably far more sober and realistic. Worth mentioning how forward-thinking this normalized depiction of gay love is: 20 years after this movie, homosexuality is only just beginning to break away from adversity stories, niche cult films, and otherwise token representations.

Wong's usual themes of alienation and isolation are on full display here, and the cinematography is the usual stunning. Much is left unexplained... I found myself wanting a bit more background as to why the two have so very much anger between them. And what finally happened with Po-Wing's passport?

While it's fundamentally different, you can see a stylistic impression from "Trainspotting" with the flawed, human characters and sometimes baffling choices, and the fast cuts. It's a movie that doesn't really care if you get into its characters' heads. The same goes for the sometimes black and white, there's little rhyme or reason to it. Just like the focal relationship, much of this movie lingers beyond the point of enjoyment. Sometimes pretty, but often tedious.

Tem um motivo para eu só assistir filmes com casais homossexuais no Valentine's Day, é porque eu desisti do amor heterossexual, mas obviamente esse filme não é o exemplo mais saudável de relação que poderíamos imaginar, aliás, ele tem a mesma premissa de Phantom Thread de que relacionamentos são possíveis apenas se um dos parceiros está debilitado, no fim das contas a verdade é essa: seres humanos em estado natural são egocêntricos e não se permitem dividir o mesmo espaço.

At least there's some down and dirty visual intimacy to the stasis of this relationship "drama" - because only aesthetically does it find momentum and resolution. Also, when these dull bastards are not fighting, some Argentine tango can be seen and heard from the sidelines, speaking of sweet, sweet love and pain. Though you might get the fuller experience by just listening to an Astor Piazzolla record.
