Trade Review
“An insightful and encompassing look at an important director.”--Film International
"Brunette traces the love, longing, and regret on view in all of Wong's films, and he rightly emphasizes their 'graphic expressivity'—that is, the distinctive, visually kinetic approach that continues to be the director's hallmark as he matures."--Booklist
"Highly recommended."--Choice
"Film scholars and movie buffs alike will surely welcome [Brunette's] stimulating discussion."--Ruby Cheung
