Why is Chongqing Forest called Chongqing Forest?

Chongqing Forest was not filmed in Chongqing, nor was it about a forest. Chongqing Forest is a hotel, which is the residence of Wong Kar-wai when he first immigrated to Hong Kong-Chongqing Hotel. Another fan thinks the film was shot in a place called chungking mansions.

Scene, in which the so-called "forest" is actually the same as the "steel forest" we often say. Chen Jia, a filmmaker, believes that when the audience watches a movie, they don't have to pay too much attention to all the symbolic things in the movie.

Wong Kar-wai's "queer theory" of the new generation movies is a faint feeling in the creator's heart, with an indescribable charm. Let's watch the movie excitedly and savor the impulse brought by the word "Chongqing forest"! Chongqing forest consists of two basically unrelated stories.

Wong Kar-wai is a very self-centered director. He never made movies to please the audience, just to convey himself. In the past life, some subtle feelings and memories can make him spend a lot of energy making movies.

Chongqing Forest was inspired by a building where Wong Kar-wai lived as a child: chungking mansions. Business and residence mix there, and people from all walks of life are here. One day, Wong Kar-wai saw the rushing crowd in the elevator, so he made a movie about the survival of Hong Kong people.
