    Need a re-watch tbh but I loved it on first viewing. One of the main films (along with Three Colors) that made me realize I only really care about visual storytelling.

    Silence Of The Lambs (1991)
    Cape Fear (1991)
    Menace II Society (1993)
    South Central (1992)
    The Matrix (1999) or Fight Club (1999) or Candy Man (1992)
    Those are just the ones that came to mind immediately, and obviously not in order.

    Gotta tell me about these things sooner fam

    Wants to be a classic technicolor horror, ends up as nothing in particular. My thing is that it's just so perfectly rendered and deliberate that the cheese in the script and performances lose all their charm. It's not really bad for being outdated (the editing of that punch lol), it's bad for being corny imitation that lives on nostalgia, its self awareness making the over-the-top nature of everything more intolerable than it is in any of the films it emulates. I was rolling my eyes the entire way through.

    That's fair tbh, it totally worked for me tho, I was giggling and smiling the whole way through. And maybe I'm so high on it cause I was swooning over Samantha Robinson the whole time :sweatt:

    And I was late to the party on Mountains also, you seen anything else from Zhang-ke?

    Nothing yet which I'm excited about since Mountains isn't like anything I've ever seen. Guide me.

    Also - any other hazy Chinese movies that vibrant? So chill

    I'm still trying to explore him myself but you should check out A Touch of Sin, it's phenomenal.

    Have you seen Hou Hsiao-hsien's work? I think you'd dig that as well.

    And if you haven't yet, Kaili Blues from this past year is incredible.
