The Sword of Doom | Kihachi Okamoto

My dad knows this video store owner in Chinatown and he can get anything he wants free. All bootlegs of course, which cost 25 cents a disc to make in China, but whatever.

I've been nagging him to find some wong kar wai movies and finally friday he brings home a packet titled Wong Kar Wai La Revolution in all its fake bootleg glory. I was like wtf, a set?

It turns out its 7 of his films on 3 discs!

Disc A:
As tears go by
Days of being wild
Chungking Express

Disc B:
Ashes of Time
Fallen Angels

Disc C:
Happy Together
In the Mood for Love

WKW has only directed 8 feature films. I already have the REAL region 1 release of 2046, so my WKW collection is complete. Though with horrible quality and with 7 of the 8 being bootlegs, lol :D

The quality sucks even worse than your typical bootleg since it's so compressed in order to fit 2 or 3 whole films on one disc. Compared to my 2046 real thing, I know I havent gotten the full WKW experience. His films are so gorgeous, it's so incredible. He's from hong kong too, so he's repping the race too, lol.

Good thing the subtitles in english are actually accurate, big question mark with bootlegs. I have a Memoirs of a Geisha bootleg with all the subtitles completely wrong, probably taken from another movie. Words on the screen when the characters aren't talking, you name it! And a couple of random "f*** you" and "i'll kill you tony!" every 5 minutes.

I've seen As the tears go by and Chungking Express already.
I hope to get the real discs soon so I can experience the true WKW, but until then this is satisfying enough for me. WKW rules!

Dune (theatrical version)
You mean the original 3-4 hour long version? I haven't been able to find that, but, honestly, I haven't looked for the past few years. I rented the "Director's Cut" a few years back and it seem awfully short. Then I realized they meant cut, all right.

Has any mentioned The Belleville Triplets?

Interesting cycling themed animation. Rich. Fraught with you fill in the blank.

I watched that last year. Thoroughly enjoyed it, but, then, I'm a weirdo.;)

Its a newer anamorphic release (2hr. 17 min.), and also includes an extended version. This extended version is just a remake of an earlier release that was basically a hack job. Sadly, the director (Lynch) refuses to have anything to do with DUNE, and as far as I know there never was a DC.

Strange though, when I saw it in the theater, I thought it was closer to 3 hr. Lots of Dune fanatics and info on the web.

Well, from what I read(years ago), Lynch wasn't happy with the film(for some reason) and cut a lot out for the video release. Made it more watchable(?), but totally confused me because it was so much shorter than I recalled. It was almost like selective fast forwarding. A scene would be missing and I'd be, like, "Hey, they skipped a scene!" Like I said, confusing.

lol, that film sunk Dino DeLaurentis as a producer

I saw the "directors cut" about 10 years ago (used to be a great video store here called "Whiz Bam" they had everything )

I think Lynch was just in over his head on that one, imo--his films are either great or horrible

I agree that its a film that is somewhat flawed and in some aspects almost a bit comical, but for hardcore fans of the book it strikes the mark in so many ways.

After Life - Hirokazu Kore-eda

The Big Sleep, Bogart as Phillip Marlowe. I recommend.
Two Fast, Two Furious. Comically awful, especially if you know anything about cars.
