niubi Posted January 28, 2004 at 04:40 AM Report Posted January 28, 2004 at 04:40 AM well, this doesn't quite fit into roddy's thread about the top films of 2003, but there is some overlap. anyway... following, in list form, is a look back at the past year of some (mostly) recent chinese films released (and soon to be released) on dvd (some may have been released before last year in china, but only became available through etailers or your local chinatown shop in the past year). many of these are worthy of a spin in your dvd player (film title - director): platform - jia zhangke unknown pleasures - jia zhangke pickpocket (xiao wu) - jia zhangke blind shaft - li yang rainclouds over wushan (in expectation) - zhang ming springtime in a small town - tian zhuangzhuang east palace, west palace - zhang yuan green tea - zhang yuan i love you - zhang yuan durian durian - fruit chan public toilet - fruit chan dazzling - li xin spring subway - zhang yibai where have all the flowers gone - gao xiaosong marriage certificate - huang jianxin something about secret - huang jianxin fish and elephant - li yu purple butterly - lou ye rice - huang jianzhong together - chen kaige chicken poets - meng jinghui little chinese seamstress - dai sijie (perhaps i should start a thread about all the important and interesting chinese films that need be released on dvd.) please add other chinese (in any chinese dialect) films released on dvd in the past year or soon to be released which should be included among the stuff we should be spinning in our dvd players. or, comment on the films i have listed. or, rant about my bias toward mainland chinese films and tell us about chinese films from hk, taiwan, or elsewhere that should take a spin in our dvd players. thanks Quote
