Wong Kar-Wai blowout and new trailer as his first English language feature (remember his BMW short The Hire) My Blueberry Nights gets ready to premiere at Cannes.

The first trailer at slashfilm here. Scroll down to see it.



NYTimes article on how a scene was shot and details from Wong himself.

Some interesting Variety articles here and here.

I know some people who worked on the film and nearly leaped (I'm not kidding) out of a taxicab as I coincidentally passed them shooting in Chinatown one night months ago. I hear interesting things, some total raves, others cautious lowering of expectations... That make me a little worried about the film. But I'm excited to see New York and other American locales shot by the collaboration of Wong and Darius Khondji, and very curious about the fact it was shot in only sixty days while on the road. He hasn't done that since Chungking Express.
