1h 57m
Directed by Tsai Ming-liang | 118 mins | 1994
Tsai’s second feature is a masterful evocation of urban loneliness and longing, quietly devastating even in its forays into something like slowed-down slapstick. A love triangle takes shape when three people—including a repressed funerary salesman played by the director’s muse and collaborator, Lee Kang-sheng—come to occupy a vacant high-rise apartment, each unbeknownst to the others. Winner of the Golden Lion at Venice 1994.
