This is his weakest film by far. But the problem is that Norah Jones is just not good enough to be the lead. And everyone in the film, except David Strathairn and to a certain extent Jude Law, did not understand what WKW aims for in the films. None of them have that sauve disconnected involvement that Maggie Cheung, or Tony Leung, or Leslie Cheung, or... have been able to portray. Maybe its the language barrier. Its a beautiful, and i cannot stress on the beauty enough, failure. And I am pretty happy to say I loved it because of that. p.s. there was not much chemistry between Jones and Law. so the kiss dint feel 'creepy', it felt kinda 'icky' too.

Shouldn't you be a bit more cynical? :) By the way, it isn't an obsession...it's unrequited love, wokay? :D @kalafudra You know I watched Chunking Express again last evening...and it hit me as to how so many scenes from MBN werere inspired by WKW's earlier films. Like Baphomet said, it feels more like a best of WKW montage without the structure. @BPSK Aren’t you older than me? Shouldn’t you be a bit more cynical? :)

But the kiss in the end just made me think how uncomfortable that must be. I really couldn't enjoy, nor even see the beauty involved.
