Iโm no longer 23 โ and I havenโt been for a few years now โ but this was a genuinely formative experience for me. It changed how I saw my own place in the world and it made me feel less stagnant and less pathetic โ the second part of the movie, specifically.
I hope every 23-(and 24, 25, 26 โฆ)-year-old finds their own Chungking Express whenever they most need it. (That probably sounds corny, but I'm 100% sincere!)
