Reflexive Representations of Unseen Forces in Wong Kar-Wai’s “In the Mood for Love”

<p>Wong Kar-Wai&rsquo;s&nbsp;<em>In the Mood for Love&nbsp;</em>makes a statement about how unseen forces conduct and inspire human behavior, psychology, interactions, and even spiritual orientation through reflexive images. The paradoxical bond and conflict between the illusive and invisible forces that tie the characters to each other and the concrete form of the reflexive image&rsquo;s composition epitomizes the fluid continuity of the forces that bind humanity together. This bond is apparent through the image that only seems concrete but is in fact only substantial in how a scene reflects the insubstantial nature of the mysteries of interactions that occur not just between people, but between the forces of nature visible only through the lenses of metaphorical representation.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@meta4media/reflexive-representations-of-unseen-forces-in-wong-kar-wais-in-the-mood-for-love-e941a9a0f041"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
