Modernism and postmodernism don't refer to time periods, they refer to a style and ideology of art. There were modernists in the silent era, etc. I'll wait for any counterarguments but Wong Kar-wai is arguably even more of a modernist than a postmodernist.

I'm not arguing that he can't also be seen as a postmodernist, but he an auteur who engaged in a sincere tone with his material, and used aesthetics as an expression of his character's feelings and psychology, not usually in a self-referential sort of way. I can look for more sources, but I'm pretty sure he can be described as a modernist.
