A 1997 film from China called, "Happy Together". It's an ironic title. The movie tells the story of two adventurous men who start out as lovers, but end up spending a lot more time together than happy. And all of this played out in Argentina. Go figure?
It's an odd and ambitious film from an unlikely part of the world, filmed in an even less likely part of the world. There are many layers through which to understand "Happy Together" and in the end it intrigues me enough to spend a little energy exploring them. But it is not an easy film to comprehend and any simplistic approach will likely prove disappointing.
