Chungking Express - Criterion Collection (Blu-ray Disc)

The whiplash, double-pronged Chungking Express is one of the defining works of nineties cinema and the film that made Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-wai an instant icon. Two heartsick Hong Kong cops (Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung), both jilted by ex-lovers, cross paths at the Midnight Express take-out restaurant stand, where the ethereal pixie waitress Faye (Faye Wong) works. Anything goes in Wong¿s gloriously shot and utterly unexpected charmer, which cemented the sex appeal of its gorgeous stars and forever turned canned pineapple and the Mamas and the Papas¿ ¿California Dreamin¿¿ into tokens of romantic longing.

• New, restored high-definition digital transfer
• Remastered Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack supervised by director Wong Kar-wai
• Audio commentary by noted Asian cinema critic Tony Rayns
• U.S. theatrical trailer
• Episode excerpt from the BBC Television series Moving Pictures, featuring Wong and cinematographer Christopher Doyle
