Thanks for posting these. The 3 reasons videos are to the point and let the cinematography speak for itself. I love In the Mood for Love, it's one of those films that you can just keep on rewatching simply for its vibe. Wonderful score as well.
Same for me since it's the only one I've seen. I will definitely watch more of his stuff though. There's a sequel to this film which makes sense since it feels rather inconclusive.
One of the comments under that video said his three reasons were:
It's a thematic trilogy, I think. 2046 is the one made immediately after, and... is more inscrutable and arty. Chunking Express was 1994, and set in then-present HK, and was two stories jammed together into one movie. Everybody loves that one but me (though Faye Wong's performance in it is great).

You're welcome. That's the only Wong Kar Wai film I love, and I love it a lot.

He missed a possible combo. All three with separate interests.
Technically everyone one the same team is another possibility. But it would be a zero conflict movie.
