 * Wong Kar Wai**

Wong Kar Wai was born in Shanghai, China in 1958. He moved to Hong Kong when he was five. After studying graphic design, he enrolled in a TV and film production training course organised by a Hong Kong TV broadcaster in 1980. This led to a career as a full-time TV screenwriter. In the mid 1980s, he was employed as screenwriter and director at a production company owned by renowned Hong Kong actor/producer, Alan Tang. He made his directorial debut working with Tang, the film //As Tears Go By//, but lost Tang's production company millions of invested dollars on his second directorial feature, //Days of Being Wild.// This film, however, brought him widespread critical acclaim.
