Recommend some Tsai Ming-Liang

Find you someone who looks at you like Tsai Ming-Liang looks at Lee Kang-Sheng, as the meme goes.

I watched a bit of The Wayward Cloud last night and thought, "this must be what Cabbage Head from Kids in the Hall's sex life is like."

Days is closer to Millenia.

Not really. Despite the by now expected static compositions, I detected more movement. I'm fascinated by how queer desire eroticizes urban landscapes.

restoration of Goodbye, Dragon Inn is astonishing

I watched The Hole recently (it’s on Kanopy but the restored version is available on VOD) and I wished I had watched it earlier in the pandemic. It captured the emotional tenor of this time so presciently well. I actually think it might be hard to top in that regard.

finally saw Days last night, damn y'all

it was an outdoor screening so it came complete with outside noise, somehow perfect, despite the group beside me who wouldn't stfu

!! ... starts streaming a week from Friday, I think? really looking forward to it

Where is it going to stream again? I assume Mubi.

looks like it'll be a virtual cinema thing, found it at https://projectr.tv/ through the distributor's site. not sure if anywhere else.

Tsai Ming-liang: TV, Documentary, and Short Films

Please note The Moon is Gone, a TV production, does not have any subtitles. None are available so far as I'm aware. All other titles either have subs or are purposefully presented unsubtitled.https://t.co/52vWLI4acO

Goodbye, Dragon Inn is one of the surest comedies of the last thirty years.
