The important thing is to find the right tree.

No trunk is too tough, none. But the tree must be the right one, and the secret must weigh on us like the boulder moved by Sisyphus.

Dig, dig, dig deep.

And then confess it. No cheating.

Find any kind of mud: pastel-colored clothes, sudden downpours, sizzling foods, trembling fingers.

It doesn't matter.

Finally close the hole with that mud.

And continue living.

But those hours marked by that violin... For this, the tree must be the right one.

Every existence is shrouded in mystery.

 The cinema of images and feelings belongs to the Chinese master Wong Kar Wai.

 Wong Kar Wai builds with the strength of images and human references, giving a lesson in Cinema to many 'great' or alleged filmmakers from across the pond.

 Silences that tell more than a thousand words and glances that reveal more than a thousand frames are the cornerstone of this "In the Mood for Love".

 "In the Mood for Love" is definitely one of the best films of the new millennium and, in my opinion, one of the best ever.

 "In the mood for love is a love destined from the start to go unfulfilled, between two people who brush against each other without ever truly meeting."

 "Wong conveys all this with unimaginable poetry and beauty of style, a bit like sinking a blade into the chest with delicacy, but the blade of a knife will never leave without deep wounds."
