Punishments in Europe at the time were also severe by modern standards, but severity of those in Japan was enough to shock many European visitors of the day. The Frenchman François Caron, who spent many years in Japan in the first half of the 17th century, wrote that "their punishments are roasting, burning, crucifying woth waies, drawing with 4 bulls and boiling in oil and water. Francesco Carletti, remarked : ... many suffered crucifixion on the slightest pretext, such as the theft of a radish... Sometimes also they crucify women, with babies at their breast, and leave them both to die in agony together.

All my films are about Hong Kong." Wong Kar Wai once told me, "even if they're set in Argentina." While many in the West saw Happy Together primarily as a love story, his compatriots saw it something more timely and relevant: Wong grappling with the meaning of the handover to China. They knew it wasn't coincidental that the film should open in Hong Kong one month before that historical transfer of power. Nor was it coincidental that it should begin with a shot of Hong kong passports and end with Tony Leung's Lai on a train in Taipei, not Hong Kong, heading into an indeterminate future as the soundtrack plays Danny Chung's cover of the pop song "Happy Together" --a title that could be read as predicting a successful union, or as a slash of bitter irony. Even the movie's defining image, the aerial shot of water rushing down Iguazu Falls, is layered with political intimations that cut in different directions. At once thrillingly spectacular and patently dangerous--Chris Doyle, who's terrified of heights, shot it while hanging out of a chopper--the roaring waters that combine in these falls are an expression of the inexorably rushing power of reunion that can be seen as both a symbol of great strength or the downward pull of destruction.

Topics & Questions for Discussion In Chapter One, “Cyrus Jones and the Magic Funeral,” Asha describes Cyrus as “mostly human, a little bit cartoon, a tiny bit ghost.” Having read the book, what do you think of Cyrus as a character? Have you met anyone like him in real life? Think back to your high school crush(es). Do you recall that first feeling of attraction? How would you react if you happened upon that person now? What does Asha’s relationship with her older sister Mira bring to story? How does she add to your understanding of Asha as a person? Jules is a source of support, emotional and financial, for Cyrus and Asha. What other roles does he play in the novel? Recall the manifesto Cyrus writes in Chapter Three: “We don’t try to convince people to buy things We don’t spy on anyone We don’t sell our souls (we don’t sell anything) and We are equal partners and make all decisions together.” Did you predict any of these points might falter? Were you correct? Consider what kind of workplace Utopia is. Would you like to work there? What elements would you like to see in your current work situation? At the end of Chapter Five, Asha thinks about the cultural differences between her and Cyrus, contemplating his “whiteness.” To what extent do you think their differences affect their understanding of each other? Have you had to think about cultural differences in a similar way? Besides WAI, several other app ideas are mentioned in the novel: Consentify, LoneStar, Buttery, Flitter, and so on. Discuss your favorite, or if you have any other start up ideas. Asha, Cyrus, and Jules must delve into all the logistical aspects of starting and growing a business, from assembling the right team to sourcing funding. What seem to be the biggest challenges to starting a business? The novel deals with themes of gender dynamics and white male privilege throughout. At what points can you see these dynamics at play, and how do the characters respond? If you were Asha’s friend, or family member, how would you react to her relationship with Cyrus? Would you have warned her or supported her? What does or doesn’t seem to work about their marriage?

Whenever Cyrus feels overwhelmed, like on the anniversary of his mother’s death or after arguing with Jules and Asha, he tends to disappear. Why do you think this is this coping mechanism, and what consequences does it have on his relationship with Asha? What did you make of Cyrus’ apology and surprise announcement in Chapter Fifteen? In the end, Asha admits to herself that she gave Cyrus power over her. How much do you agree with Asha’s assessment of what went wrong? How do you feel about Asha’s overall growth, and her willingness to fix what’s broken at WAI? Is it fair for the responsibility of rebuilding to fall on her?

I could read it so you don’t have to?” she offers, but I’m already halfway through. I start to read aloud. “ ‘I had this vision for creating a platform that would help people to connect and coalesce around the things that mattered most to them. It was a natural extension of what I’d been doing for years. People used to call me a humanist spirit guide—I guess that’s what I’m bringing to WAI now, just on a larger stage.’ “He doesn’t even mention us. Doesn’t say anything about how Jules and I dragged him kicking and screaming into this. I wanted to create a platform. Cyrus just wanted to baptize cats.” “To be fair, the Cat Baptism is one of the most shared rituals,” Destiny says, trying to lighten the tone. “Eight hundred thousand videos and counting.” I keep going. “ ‘I’m attracted to the solitary life, Jones says. You can imagine him in a monastery, although he’d have to cut off that halo around his head. In addition to creating a social network that millions of people are turning to for meaning and community, he is also taking care of his employees—he has just kicked off a mentorship program to give the women on his team the support they need to thrive in their roles.’ ” Destiny tells me to stop reading. “It’s just bullshit.” I take a shaky deep breath. “That’s my mentorship program,” I whisper. “Cyrus is telling them what he wants to hear. You and I both know that.” I’m stammering now, but I keep going. “ ‘He’s otherworldly but handsome in an almost comical way. His sentences are long, and when you’re in the middle of one, you wonder, where is this going? But he always manages to bring whatever he’s saying to a satisfying conclusion. Everything he says is mysterious and somehow obvious at the same time.’ ” At least this one is funny. I allow Destiny to laugh briefly. I get to the last line. “ ‘I have to say, I’m developing something of a crush.’ ” “Oh, for God’s sake, another woman in love with Cyrus. Take a number, sister.” Destiny leans over, reads the byline. “George Milos. Guess Cyrus appeals to all genders.” As we get up to leave, she says, “I don’t think Cyrus is a bad person. He’s just basking in a sea of adoration, and it makes him think more of himself than he should.” “Where does that leave me?” “You have a tough gig. No one wants to be married to the guy everyone thinks is going to save the world.

Such indirection and ambivalence typify the politics of Wong's work. He's not in any conventional sense an ideological filmmaker. "It's never been my intention," he said at the Cannes press conference for 2046, "to make films with any political content whatsoever." A cautious man allergic to grand pronouncements, he doesn't make message movies, much less give political speeches or man the barricades. The rise of China has been the biggest story in the world for the last 20 years--no place has felt this more deeply than Hong Kong--yet Wong's work is notable for its apparent lack of interest in post-revolutionary China, either in its Maoist incarnation or today's hyper-capitalist model launched by Deng Xiaoping, whose death appears in a news report Lai watches in Happy Together. It's not that he doesn't thing about political issues, but he weaves his ideas (and they are intuitions more than ideological stances) into the intricate fabric of his work. This makes him ripe for interpretation, especially by critical admirers who, almost to a one, prefer to think of him as being some sort of social radical whose political ideas bubble beneath the surface of his work.

There is very little left of the ancient traditions of Kū (or Tū) and Lono (Ono, Rongo). Perhaps Kū originally represented the Father aspect of God. Fornander says that he represented stability.42 The aspect of the Father that metes out judgement may have later caused the god Kū to be corrupted into the god of war and judgement, calling for the death of those who broke the “law” (kapus). Lono may have represented the Holy Spirit. A prayer offered to Lono during the Makahiki (the Hawaiian new year rites) says in part, “Send gracious showers of rain, oh Lono, Life-giving rain, a grateful gift,”43 Lono’s surname was Noho i ka Wai (dwelling on the water).

As soon as I set foot in the door, I saw the woman raise her hands feebly in a wai. I didn’t give a thought to her condition, but simply sat in samadhi. Mae Fyyn said two or three words, moved herself a little, raised her hands in another wai, sat up, and then kneeled down by her pillow. ‘Get well,’ I told her. ‘Be done with your old karma.

“
Nafsu, Kehati-hatian dalam Suasana Tepat untuk Bercinta
(Shades of "In the Mood for Love, 2046, Lust, Caution, Infernal Affairs, Chungking Express, Hero & Neo-Noir.")
Tony,
setiap kali kau melintas di layar,
dunia berhenti bernapas
seolah kamera Wong Kar-wai
telah mengikat denyut bumi
pada nadi kecil di bawah matamu.
Tapi aku hendak menulis tentang hal lain—
tentang kota-kota yang menua
atau tentang tubuh manusia yang gagal memahami keinginan—
lalu kau muncul begitu saja,
seperti bisikan neon
yang memaksa ingatan mundur
ke jalan-jalan sempit Hong Kong
pada menit yang tak pernah diputar ulang.
Bagaimana mungkin kau memikul
begitu banyak kesepian, Tony?
Kesepian yang licin seperti hujan,
dan setajam bilah yang pernah kau selundupkan
ke balik lengah sejarah.
Setiap peran yang kaumasuki
bukanlah karakter—
melainkan lorong psikis
yang kau bongkar dengan tangan hening.
Chow Mo-Wan,
yang menyembunyikan rahasia di lubang kuil Angkor Wat,
Masih berjalan di belakangmu
seperti bayangan yang tak rela mati.
Aku ingin bicara denganmu, Leung
bukan sebagai penulis,
bukan sebagai penonton,
tetapi sebagai seseorang
yang tahu bagaimana rasanya
menjadi rahasia yang tidak ingin disembunyikan.
Aku membawa segelas bir,
angin malam,
dan suara klakson yang patah.
Di meja kecil itu,
kau hanya menatap;
seolah seluruh sejarah ketidaksetiaan
sedang berusaha menulis ulang dirinya sendiri
di balik tajam sorot matamu.
Chiu-wai,
aku tak lupa bagaimana kau mencabik tubuh gadis itu
dalam Lust, Caution:
bukan dengan jemarimu,
tetapi dengan kehampaan yang mematuhi logikanya sendiri.
Aku benci padamu—
sekaligus iri pada dingin pisau itu,
pada caramu memegang nafsu
sebagai alat penyiksaan.
Mr. Yee,
kau bilang:
"Satu sudah mati. Separuh otaknya hilang.
Saya mengenali yang lainnya."
Dan aku tahu,
bahkan tanpa kamera,
kau tetap akan tersenyum
dengan keanggunan seorang pembunuh
yang terlalu elegan untuk merasa bersalah.
Namun ketika kau berlari
menembus lampu-lampu jalan raya
untuk menyelamatkan sekelebat hidup yang terlihat rapuh,
seolah kematian pun ragu menelanmu.
Adegan itu indah—
indah karena dunia sesaat lupa
bahwa kau tidak pernah benar-benar ingin hidup.
Kau tahu, Tony,
aku masih mengikutimu
ke kedai mie yang tua itu.
Aku memilih kursi paling belakang,
mendengar sumpit menemukan mangkukmu
seperti dentang jam
yang menunda takdir.
Kau berbicara lewat telepon
kepada perempuan yang bukan istrimu
dan tanpa sadar
menghidupkan kembali dosa-dosa
yang lupa kau kubur.
Aku melihatmu di meja mahyong.
Aku tahu ekspresi wajah pemain curang.
Dan kau, Leung—
kau bukan Dewa Judi Ko Chun,
meski dunia ingin percaya
bahwa keberuntunganmu datang dari langit,
bukan dari kehancuran batin
yang luar biasa detail.
Aku seharusnya membunuhmu waktu itu,
waktu kau telanjang dan tertidur
bersama istriku dalam mimpi yang kau curi.
Tubuh kalian basah,
sunyi,
dan terlalu jujur.
Tapi aku tidak jadi melakukannya.
Bukan karena kau tak layak mati—
melainkan karena aku ingin melihat
apa yang tersisa dari cahaya
ketika ia melewati matamu.
Apa itu keberanian, Tony?
Apa itu kehati-hatian?
Apa itu keinginan yang terus mengintai
di balik sutra, kain, dan rahasia?
Kau tak akan bisa menjawab.
Kau hanya bisa hidup dalam kilau film
yang selalu menunda tamat,
karena realitas terlalu sempit
untuk menampung duka yang kau bawa.
Dan aku,
aku akan terus membuntutimu
dari film ke film,
dari kehidupan ke kehidupan,
menunggu saat kau sadar
bahwa yang kukagumi bukanlah dirimu—
tetapi kehancuranmu
yang tak pernah berakhir.
(2024 - 2025)
