Happy Together. It's about a couple of expatriates from Hong Kong living in Buenos Aires and their gay relationship. A visual feast, due to the director and his cinematographer Chris Doyle's technical repertoire.

Chungking Express

Ashes of Time Redux (2008)

In the Mood For Love

The Grandmaster

Fallen Angels (although it has been a while, I should give it a rewatch)

Beautiful film -- which was, I seem to remember, the first of his films which I saw and I was instantly entranced by his magical eye for lighting and colour.

It's simply inexplainable that cinematographer Christopher Doyle has not received a single Oscar nomination for his work on Wong's films.

Honestly, The Grandmaster is the only one of his films that I actively disliked. I saw the original Hong Kong cut - said to be by some way the superior version - but I found it choppily edited, with a feeling of being incomplete. It achieved the seemingly impossible task of making me bored watching the usually magnetic Tony Leung.

I have yet to see Ashes of Time - I really need to catch up with that one.

'The Grandmaster' wasn't the best 'Ip Man' film but it was because of Tony Leung & Zhang Ziyi that I enjoyed the film.

The original 'Ashes of Time' isn't available here in the West, so the version I have seen is called 'Ashes of Time Redux'. Since I haven't seen the original, I do not know how different it is, but it can be quite slow at times.
