My Blueberry Nightness!

So even though I am on vacation, I felt compelled to put this little tidbit up about Wong Kar Wai’s upcoming movie My Blueberry Nights. If you have never seen anything by this master, then I suggest you run out post-haste and find his whole filmography including, Chungking Express, Happy Together, Fallen, Angels, In the Mood for Love, and it's companion piece 2046 (which, unfortunately after three attempts I still have not gotten through, note to self, don't start watch artsy foriegn films at 2am, you WILL fall asleep no natter how good.)

Wong Kar Wai is known for his beautiful looking films (generally working with awesome collaborator Christopher Doyle, though equally badass Darius Khondji of Se7en shoots Nights). My Blueberry Nights marks a first for him, as it is hi
s first complete English film. With a cast that includes Norah Jones, Natalie Portman, Jude Law, David Strathairn and Rachel Weisz, he's certainly heading in the right direction. Take a look at stunning poster below and check out the trailer here.

My Blueberry Night opens in the U.S. on April 4th 2008.
