Directors: Wong Kar Wai

Few filmmakers have had a greater impact on Western cinema than Hong Kong iconoclast Wong, whose dreamily impressionistic style has influenced everything from “Lost in Translation” to “Everything Everywhere All at Once” (the film’s neon-lit alley scene is a none-too-subtle wink to Wong’s signature aesthetic).

Still, it’s been nearly a decade since his last feature, 2013’s “The Grandmaster” — a film that applied his romantic style, with its fluid camera moves and hypnotic slow-motion, to the world of martial arts, suggesting he might be willing to conquer new genres.

Wong is currently wrapping his first TV series, “Blossoms Shanghai,” which the Shanghai-born director describes as an extension of his films “In the Mood for Love” and “2046,” and which will consist of 24 hour-long episodes.
