Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Wong Kar-wai est un réalisateur, scénariste, et producteur hongkongais né le 17 juillet 1958 à Shanghai en Chine. Né à Shanghai, il émigre à Hong Kong avec sa mère à l'âge de cinq ans. Son père, directeur d'hôtel, qui aurait dû les rejoindre avec ses deux autres enfants, reste bloqué en Chine par la Révolution Culturelle. La séparation dure une dizaine d'années. Cet exil familial, doublé d'un exil culturel et linguistique (le jeune Wong Kar-wai ne parle que le mandarin, il éprouve des difficultés pour s'adapter au cantonais de Hong-Kong), explique peut-être l'importance de la séparation, de l'errance (thème récurrent de l'"oiseau sans pattes" qui ne se pose que pour mourir), et surtout de la mémoire dans l'œuvre du cinéaste. Dès cette période, il fréquente assidûment les cinémas avec sa mère, et est marqué par le cinéma "classique" hollywoodien. Étudiant en arts graphiques à l'École Polytechnique de Hong Kong, il se passionne pour la photographie. Il découvre le cinéma européen, et notamment les cinéastes français de la Nouvelle Vague. Il obtient son diplôme en 1980. Après être entré comme assistant de production pour la chaîne Hong Kong Television Broadcasts (HKTVB), il devient scénariste de télévision à plein temps et écrit notamment le « soap opera » Don't Look Now qui est un grand succès. Il quitte la chaîne pour entrer dans le département scénario de Cinema City qu'il quitte pour devenir indépendant. Il est crédité de plus de 10 scénarios entre 1982 et 1987, comédies romantiques, drames ou film de k...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Product Description
Born in 1958 in Shanghai, he moved to Hong Kong with his parents at the age of five. There he studied Graphic Design in college, and graduated to become a professional screenwriter, working across an array of genres from romantic comedy to action drama. His stunning breakthrough into film direction came in 1991 with the acclaimed Days of Being Wild. The glorious succession of films that have followed - Chungking Express (1994), Fallen Angels (1995), Happy Together (1997), and In the Mood for Love (2000) - have revealed Wong's core thematic obsessions (memory, rootlessness, desire), established his collaboration with the gifted cinematographer Christopher Doyle, and spawned innumerable imitators due to their bold, experimental use of photography, music, and editing. Wong has won numerous awards both in his native Hong Kong and abroad, including the Best Director prize at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival for Happy Together. Now Tony Rayns here explores the trajectory of Wong's work through a series of detailed and revealing interviews with the man himself. ... Read more
