YesAsia Editorial Description

Released to great acclaim in 1990, Days of Being Wild is where Wong Kar Wai begins. The Hong Kong auteur's second film after the more conventionally narrated As Tears Go By, Days of Being Wild gave world cinema its first glimpse of what would become Wong Kar Wai's signature: elliptical storytelling, existential brooding, breathtaking cinematography and art direction, haunting score, all-star cast, and that heartbreaking air of lingering and longing. Set in 1960s Hong Kong, the film stars Wong's two muses, Maggie Cheung and the late Leslie Cheung, in the career-defining role of the dashingly charismatic self-destructive playboy York for which he won Best Male Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Days of Being Wild also co-stars Carina Lau, Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Rebecca Pan, and Tony Leung Chiu Wai.

Raised by a foster mother who used to make her living as a courtesan, York (Leslie Cheung) has only one wish: to find out who his real mother is. Stubborn and careless, York gets acquainted with a lonely submissive bar girl (Maggie Cheung) and a beautiful club hostess/dancer (Carina Lau) before leaving his whole life behind in search of the truth which may ultimately destroy him.

Ineffable, atmospheric, and unforgettable Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
"Days of Being Wild" is the kind of movie that leaves some viewers contemplating it for days and others wondering what the heck they just watched. Count me in the former camp. The film lacks a conventional narrative structure; there is no real plot. The film opens with a series of scenes in which devastatingly handsome York (Leslie Cheung) repeatedly seeks to seduce gorgeous but shy snack bar girl Su Lizhen (Maggie Cheung). However, once he has managed to get her into his bed, York has no further use for Lizhen. He next manages to win the affections of saucy cabaret dancer Mimi (Carina Lau), but again York is unsatisfied by the relationship. York's friend Zeb (Jacky Cheung) pines for Mimi, but she cares only for York. And heartbroken Lizhen turns to beat cop Tide (Andy Lau) to vent her sorrows. Underlying York's restlessness is his desire to find his real mother and his disgust at the neediness he sees in his adoptive mother's relationship with a man who beds her while he takes her money and steals her jewelry. With these elements, director Wong Kar Wai brews up a steamy stew of a movie, luxuriously captured by the indelibly muted lensing of cinematographer Christopher Doyle.

Director Wong coaxes full-bodied, affecting performances out of each of his cast members, but for me the real standouts are Leslie Cheung as York, who subsumes his inner torment in serial womanizing, and Carina Lau, whose sex appeal is strong enough to peal paint off the walls. If there is a theme to this film, perhaps it is about how people react when they cannot get what they really want. York cannot get his mother; Zeb cannot get Mimi; Mimi cannot have York; Tide cannot have the career he wants; Lizhen first cannot keep York, then cannot reach Tide.

I have two relatively minor complaints. First, the English subtitles on this Mega Star DVD are subpar, particularly in the opening scenes. Second, and more seriously, the explosion of violence that occurs when York journeys to the Philippines in search of his mother seems forced; it doesn't really flow from what precedes it in the film. It leaves me wondering whether the filmmakers were required to include it in order to get financing to make the movie. Nonetheless, I recommend "Days of Being Wild" very highly. It is an unforgettable film that I'm sure will richly reward repeated viewings.

Days of Being Wild Customer Review Rated Bad 7 - 7 out of 10
A little disappointing for me after all the rave reviews I've seen. I expected a lot more. Leslie of course did not disappoint, he was excellent. However, I'm a little puzzled as to the pictures on the dvd cover showing Tony Leung, etc (presuming scenes from the movie), but they were NEVER in the movie. Tony Leung only appeared in one last scene showing him all dressed up. Where did his character fit in??When Carina Lau arrived in Manila to track Leslie, did she discover that he was dead?

Does any other fans feel the same???

I don't know... but I always confused Wong Ka-Wai's movie.. have to think deeply the meaning of his movie.. but Leslie did really good job on this movie, he really acted well. But over all, my impression of this movie was.. little boring...
