Happy Together
Film Description Wong Kar-Wai's lyrical poem to 'starting over' - personally and culturally - woven into a weeping wound of entropic romance. A gay couple from Hong Kong are stranded in Buenos Aires, where they fall apart to a woozy tango rhythm. Displacement gives way to arrival in the finale's dazzling rush.
