Kar Wai Wong (2046) reworks his film Ashes of Time. The original was apparently a disappointment and this is his shot at cleaning up his record. I haven't seen the original and by the looks of this it appears to be traditional current Chinese fare - heavy on the beautiful cinematography, light on character development and narrative punch. Here's to hoping he's fixed the issues found in the first version and delivers a great film.
