We devour Wong Kar-Wai’s “My Blueberry Nights” and discuss:

Music, keeping heavy moments light;
Cinematography, step-printing, lighting, reflections, shallow depth of field;
Story & Writing, the thesis and antithesis, stories of broken people, transportation as a metaphor;
and other such stuff and things and stuff.

“We’re all unlucky in love sometimes. When I am, I go jogging. The body loses water when you jog, so you have none left for tears.“ – Wong Kar-Wai
