Hong Kong To-do: edit purge Clean up all MTR station pages. They are literally all over the place. Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box". We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.) Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

[edit] Repeated song

Was "Dreams" is played several times? I remembered it to be only as end theme song. --Menchi (Talk)â 09:26, 15 Dec 2003 (UTC)

The song is "Dream Person" (not "Dreams") by Faye Wong. It can be found on her album "Random Thoughts". Visit the Faye Wong page on Wikipedia for more information. The song plays when Faye is cleaning the apartment, and as well at the end of the film. Her song "Know Oneself and Each Other" (also found on "Random Thoughts") is as well in the movie very briefly during one of the bar sequences when Tony is sitting by the jukebox.

[edit] Names and Fallen Angels

"Kaneshiro Takeshi" and "Wong Faye" aren't the english/western ways of putting their names. In English they're known was Takeshi Kanesiro and Faye Wong. I'd think it'd be logical to change the names to this because Tony Leung Chiu-Wai and Wong Kar Wai in put into "western" form.

Also should it be mentioned that WKW filmed two additional stories that were intially planned to be told in Chungking Express, but were left out and fleshed out to form Fallen Angels. It also features Takeshi Kaneshiro. The story takes place in the same universe and has the same themes as Chungking Express.

Referring to your second paragraph: It's actually only one additional story, not two. Jason Gervais 17:10, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
