One of Wong Kar-Wai’s greatest cinematic triumphs was In the Mood for Love. This particular scene precisely tells us why. It captures a range of events like desire, loneliness, sadness, apathy in just a few frames. The camera never flinches from its objective. Wong Kar-Wai presents two humans who are trapped in a groundhog day like scenario where they keep on repeating the same monotonous aspects of their lives, eating from a roadside shack, till one day they discover each other. Here’s a video of the scene. Go through it to understand it better.
