Fallen Angels. by Kar-Wai, Wong,film director.; Lai, Leon,actor.; Reis, Michelle,actor.; Kaneshiro, Takeshi,actor.; The Criterion Collection (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Leon Lai, Michelle Reis, Takeshi KaneshiroOriginally produced by The Criterion Collection in 1995.Lost souls reach out for human connection amid a glimmering Hong Kong in Wong Kar Wai’s hallucinatory, neon-soaked nocturne. Originally conceived as a segment of CHUNGKING EXPRESS only to spin off on its own woozy axis, FALLEN ANGELS plays like the dark, moody flip side of its predecessor as it charts the subtly interlacing fates of a handful of urban loners, including a coolly detached hit man (Leon Lai Ming) looking to go straight; his business partner (Michelle Reis), who secretly yearns for him; and a mute delinquent (Takeshi Kaneshiro) who wreaks mischief by night. Swinging between hard-boiled noir and slapstick lunacy with giddy abandon, the film is both a dizzying, dazzling city symphony and a poignant meditation on love, loss, and longing in a metropolis that never sleeps.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Household Saints. by Savoca, Nancy,film director.; Taylor, Lili,actor.; Imperioli, Michael,actor.; Ullman, Tracey,actor.; D’Onofrio, Vincent,actor.; Kino Lorber (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Lili Taylor, Michael Imperioli, Tracey Ullman, Vincent D’OnofrioOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 1993.Nancy Savoca’s star-studded indie gem is a chronicle of a spirited Italian-American New York family that perfectly balances humor, tragedy, and pathos. Joseph Santangelo (Vincent D’Onofrio) is a butcher with a wicked sense of humor who “wins” his wife Catherine (a stellar Tracey Ullman) in a pinochle game. Over the protests of his mother (Judith Malina) who talks to ghosts and makes deals with saints, Joseph marries Catherine. When the old lady dies, her spirit is channeled into her granddaughter Teresa who overtakes the film with her yearning to serve God. Perfectly embodying a modern-day Bernadette, Lili Taylor imbues Teresa with a mix of dedicated innocence and naïveté. Executive produced by Jonathan Demme, with memorable performances from Michael Imperioli, Michael Rispoli and Victor Argo, HOUSEHOLD SAINTS showcases a unique voice in 1990s independent filmmaking.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
