The Guardian has a clip from Wong Kar Wai’s My Blueberry Nights, which apparently opens in the UK this week, and it looks TERRIBLE. Well, actually, it *looks* lovely, but the clip is interminable. A smug-faced Jude Law spouting ludicrous pie metaphors, Norah Jones rocking the up-inflected, hand-wringing, school-play style of acting. Luckily when Cat Power starts singing, they stop talking, which is some kind of improvement, but the drippy, moony gazes over the desert, and the magical realist melty ice cream animation are still awful. Watch it here, and read about the film’s US release date limbo here.
