Wong Kar-wai. 1988, 102 mins. 35mm. With Andy Lau, Maggie Cheung, Jackie Cheung. Wong\u2019s impressive debut As Tears Go By is a gangster film with all the brazen audacity of its characters. Filled with his characteristic themes of alienation and longing, the story follows gangster and drifter Ah Wah as he tries to protect his friend Fly from slipping into fatal danger with a large gang and falls in love with youthful and vibrant Ah-Ngor. Although often critically eclipsed by his later works, it is an early masterpiece. \u201cDrenched in romanticism, it has one of the great music montages in Hong Kong film,\u201d writes David Bordwell, \u201cand a finale that you feel lifting from genre formula to pictorial poetry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Free with Museum admission on a first-come, first-served basis.<\/p>\n<p>For more:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.movingimage.us\/visit\/calendar\/2013\/08\/09\/detail\/as-tears-go-by\">http:\/\/www.movingimage.us\/visit\/calendar\/2013\/08\/09\/detail\/as-tears-go-by<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday, August 9 @ 7PM Museum of the Moving Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32042"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32042\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32047,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32042\/revisions\/32047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
