11.12

Bitches Brew (Miles Davis, 1970)

Super intense experience, definitely the best jazz album I've heard.

Choice cuts: Pharaoh's Dance, Bitches Brew, Sanctuary







Days of Being Wild (Wong Kar Wai, 1990)

Haha, Wong has a knack for making likeable actors into fucking creeps.  The beginning and opening credits are so perfect it's a bit unfair to the rest of the movie, but it never slows down.  I loved Andy Lau's storyline and wanted it to end after he became a sailor, but I was okay with the way it reintegrated into the main plot.  I knew Tony Leung was in it and was bummed when he kept not appearing, so I adore the ending.
