After sitting through a couple freeform movies over the last couple months (the terribly boring Last Days and Broken Flowers and the excruciatingly pointless 9 Songs—basically a hipster porn flick with cool bands plugged in to attract the crowds) I finally saw a slow movie that I liked, Wong Kar Wai’s 2046. While the film doesn’t have a necessarily very compelling narrative, it’s so beautiful to look at (gorgeous vintage and futuristic costumes, amazing set designs and graphics) and longingly romantic it’s one of the best date movies currently in theaters. My advice—share a bottle of wine before the show, forget about a storyline, and lapse into a past/future vision of love and lust in multiple centuries. The film is playing this week at the Harvard Exit.
