Invisible Waves (dir Pen-ek Ratanaruang, Last Life in the Universe) Hitman-turned-chef kills girlfriend, legs it to Phuket to wrestle with guilt and karma for 118 mins. Thai homeboy Ratanaruang yanks festival curtain with wispy pan-Asian noir that pulls mood and funk from mad 2046 DoP Chris Doyle. Doyle verdict on Memoirs Of A Geisha: "Three of my best friends fucked themselves on that movie."
Stolen Life (dir. Li Shaohong, prod. Springtime In A Small Town) Beijing student knocked up by handsome serial-seducer. Chinese wrist-slitter. See /L'Enfant/ instead.
Quote Of The Day
"I know more about James Bond than anyone else alive." Christopher Lee, presenting a screening of The Man With The Golden Gun.
