Tax included.
'The Sensuous Cinema of Wong Kar-wai: Film Poetics and the Aesthetic of Disturbance' by Gary Bettinson (2nd Edition, Hong Kong University Press 204-page paperback)
The widely acclaimed films of Wong Kar-wai are characterized by their sumptuous yet complex visual and sonic style. This study of the director's filmmaking techniques uses a poetics approach to examine how form, music, narration, characterisation, genre, and other artistic elements work together to produce certain effects on audiences.
This tenth-anniversary edition includes a substantial new afterword bringing the story of Wong’s career up to date (including reflections on his 2023 drama series Blossoms Shanghai).
