In the opening scenes of “Headshot,” a man sporting a shaved head and clad in the orange robes of a Buddhist monk enters a courtyard, turns toward a group of thugs, pulls a gun from a small bowl and fires at them. The imposter is a hitman, not a holy man, and in the subsequent chaos he’s shot in the head.

Movie Poster of the Week: Wong Kar-wai’s “In the Mood for Love”
17 February 2012 8:57 AM, PST | MUBI | See recent MUBI news »
This superb fan poster by Rebecca Leigh for In the Mood for Love fills a void. I felt that there was never a really great poster for Wong Kar-wai’s masterpiece which was a crying shame since if ever a film both deserved and lent itself to an extraordinary graphic interpretation it was that one.

However, one of his most famous collaborations occured when he somehow managed to wrangle the cranky, Hollywood-hating, but exceptionally gifted Christopher Doyle for "The Lady In The Water." The longtime cinematographer for Wong Kar-Wai (though they haven't worked together since "In The Mood For Love") is known for capturing astonishingly beautiful and unexpected moments.
