many scenes I can't forget in Fallen Angels though it does fall short of the other Wong movies I've seen. I thought the beginning scenes of the girl cleaning the apt. and then the killer's moves there were brilliant.
The girl's activities later on in the apartment were... fascinating.

(Thanks for the name correction: Asian ones are tough for me because of the unfamiliarity factor).
