As Years Go By

I've always wanted to keep a journal or diary of some sorts, mainly for the same reasons as everyone else: to chronicle events, record thoughts, and to track the progression of both. So, this will be my first attempt to write a journal--my simple blog.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Wong Kar-Wai's first film, the BAMcinématek played As Tears Go By (1988) last week, May 2-8. I've seen almost every film (8 to be exact) that Wong Kar Wai has directed. But I'm aspiring to watch all of them, even the not-so-great though equally as ambitious ones, and then all of them all over again, in order to declare myself a true admirer :)
