Love Hurts: Chungking Express

This month we’re celebrating the beautiful misery of being in love and all the pitfalls that come with it.

This neon-lit Hong Kong charmer features two tales of melancholic love, linked by a pair of heartsick Hong Kong cops (Takeshi Kaneshiro and Tony Leung), both jilted by ex-lovers, who cross paths at the Midnight Express takeout restaurant where ethereal waitress Faye (Faye Wong) works.

Don’t miss one of the defining works of ’90s cinema that made Wong Kar-Wai an icon, cemented the sex appeal of its gorgeous stars, and forever turned canned pineapple and The Mamas & The Papas’ “California Dreamin’” into tokens of romantic longing.
