Wong Kar-wai had been like a teacher for me. He taught me many different ways of approaching acting, especially the first time I worked with him. I remember that was very important for me. The first time I met him, we were in Argentina to shoot Happy Together. He asked me to come to his office and he put a CD in a CD player and told me: "Imagine this song is your song. You've come from Taipei with this song." I had no idea what he was talking about. Remembering this, I realise how important that advice was. These days I often look for similar references for my parts. It might be a painting, a colour or a picture. This is the Wong Kar-wai way of seeing how to act. Working with him, it can be also abstract. With Wong Kar-wai, you kind of dance with the camera, you have a relationship with it. (it) |
