I got a strip from The Strange Case of Angelica, one of my favourite films in the catalogue. "Is this that absolute love I've heard about?" Well, Cinema Guild, I think it is!!

That is good news. Hopefully this means that they could pick up some of the OOP titles or better yet given the lack of US release Visage.

Woohoo!!!!! \:D/ And to reiterate the other comments: I hope there's a blu-ray, and any of his earlier titles would be great if they could get the rights. Tsai's films have an abysmal release record in terms of quality, overall.

What would be totally amazing would be a set with Stray Dogs and the "late digital period" short films - but given the probable commercial prospects of a film like this, even a barebones Blu would be almost too good to be true!

I suppose it would be too much to suggest adding Tsai's upcoming medium-length film Journey to the West/The Journey in Occident as well which premieres in Berlin next month. It seems connected to the previous Walker short whilst throwing Denis Lavant into the mix.

Great news about What Now? Remind Me and Stray Dogs.

Both will be blind buys for me, hopefully on Blu Ray.

Yet another Cinema Guild release I'd never heard of before that looks like a must-see. Definitely blind buying this one.

I watched this film last night and it's great. Rodrigues and De Mata construct a modern film noir by layering first-person narration and (a little) additional dialogue over largely documentary footage, with only a handful of staged shots. The film was filmed as simple documentary / travelogue, the directors shooting what they liked the look of in Macao, then assembled in the editing suite as a narrative was written to tie together the various shots; then they went back to shoot the bare minimum footage they needed to fill in the narrative gaps. The result is a thriller that feels like a Chris Marker remake of Kiss Me Deadly.

Cinema Guild are carrying over the two collaborative shorts (adding up to about an hour) also included on the French disc (which is the one I've got). No English subs for the extras on the French disc, but Red Dawn doesn't need any, and I had a subbed China, China on the Directors' Fortnight short films set.

China, China is good, if very 'short-filmy' in its predictable narrative twists. Red Dawn is much more a companion piece to Macao, but requires the advisory that it's entirely devoted to the preparation of food in a Chinese street market, so it's all about turning live animals into dead food. Not for the squeamish (but hey! it is dedicated to Jane Russell!)
