Product Description: With his lush and sensual visuals, pitch-perfect soundtracks, and soulful romanticism, Wong Kar Wai has established himself as one of the defining auteurs of our time. Next March, Criterion will celebrate his swoon-worthy cinema with the most comprehensive box set of his work ever released, including new 4K digital restorations of his acclaimed feature films As Tears Go By, Days of Being Wild, Chungking Express, Fallen Angels, Happy Together, In the Mood for Love, and 2046.

This beautifully illustrated deluxe package also contains an extended version of Wong's 2004 short film The Hand, a new Q&A with the director, archival interviews, three making-of documentaries, deleted scenes and alternate endings, a new essay by critic John Powers, six collectible art prints, and much more.
