Damn 20 years already. Truly an icon.

And what an incredible film career he had. Just absolute top-tier stuff, some of these films. Farewell My Concubine, Rouge and Happy Together... masterpieces of the highest order.

You could say it about any great screen presence who leaves too soon, but Leslie is one of those where I do stop from time to time and wonder what he might have gifted us had he still been here.

He’s so good in Once A Thief, such a great action/comedy

Truly a weird coincidence as Ive been working through the criterion Wong Kar Wai set and just watched Happy Together for the first time last night

A legend in HK cinema and cantopop... really loved his performance in Once A Thief and A Chinese Ghost Story.

Yeah, I just delved into Wong Kar Wai too; his movies are phenomenal. For a myriad of reasons, Happy Together has always been my favorite. Well, it’s tied with Chungking Express, but it’s hard to top it.
