Moonlight

Moonlight  is directed by Barry Jenkins who I think loves Wong Kar Wai and actually gets him. Kudos that he made a film influenced by WKW's style and is good but definitely not directed by WKW. I think it is a good example of how you can be influenced by a director and still make your own film. Would homage be the right word for this? And as usual with ALL Wong Kar Wai films, I started to cry in the first 15 minuted and continue silent tears until the end. It is a good film and definitely better than La La Land (referring to the Oscar mix up). Highly recommended.
