Starring Gong Li, Chang Chen
Director Hou Hsaio-Hsien
THREE TIMES is Hou Hsiao Hsien's masterpiece. A rapturous and beautiful love story set in three different eras - a pool hall in 1966, a 1911 brothel and present day Taipei. Stylistic and true to life of the times, Hou Hsiao Hsien brings to life the culture of each period as the tales unfold. Critically acclaimed for its wisdom, cinematic style and storytelling it is a must see for any true lover of cinema.

Masterful Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-hsien (MILLENNIUM MAMBO, CAFE LUMIERE) directs three tales of love set in 1911, 1966, and 2005. Each story stars Qi Shu (THE EYE) and Chang Chen (CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON).

Theatrical Release: April 26, 2006

Three Times Reviews:

Ranked #11 in Film Comment's "20 Best Films Of 2006."-- Film Comment Staff, Film Comment

"[The film] finds Taiwanese master Hou Hsiao-hsien at his most intimate and romantic....It emerges as the unified vision of a perceptive and highly personal filmmaker."-- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

"The first story, 'A Time for Love,' is by far the best....This is a love story in which the chemistry is all there is and Hou stages it with delicate nostalgia..." -- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

"[H]ypnotically beautiful....[The director] brings us love and loss in three different time periods." -- Manohla Dargis, New York Times

3 stars out of 5 -- "THREE TIMES remains a visually sharp and beautifully acted piece of work." -- Tom Dawson, Total Film

"[A] trio of exquisitely mounted stories that are ostensibly about live but also have a quiet political resonance." -- Nick James, Sight and Sound

Metropolis DVD  (1927) Full Frame; Black & White

DVD $22.09  5 stars Top 500
METROPOLIS, a visionary and elaborate spectacle by director Fritz Lang is an epic projection of a futuristic city divided into a working and an elite class. Its exhilarating climax brings the city to its knees, as the classes clash against each other. In the 21st century, a de-humanized proletariat labors non-stop in a miserable subterranean city beneath a luxurious city of mile-high skyscrapers, flying automobiles, palatial architectural idylls, tubes and tunnels. With stunningly inventive special effects, Lang's allegorical narrative and architectural vision creates a highly stylized vision of a not-so-unlikely future (especially for 1926 when the film was made). As the elite frolic above the clouds, thousands of miserable workers toil night and day inside the belly of the gigantic machine that runs the entire city. Metropolis is controlled by a sinister authoritarian whose son, Freder, rejects his father's callous philosophy and attitude towards laborers. Meek though they are, the workers are encouraged by Maria, a wistful young woman who wills her comrades to embrace patience and silent strength. Upon discovering her influence upon the workers, a mad scientist kidnaps Maria and creates ...

Youth gangs took over the slums of Rio de Janiero during the 1960s and didn't relinquish their stronghold until the mid-1980s. Only a sucker wouldn't have turned to crime and this is exactly how naive teen Rocket (Alexandre Rodrigues) views himself. His attempts in illegal activity fail as he finds potential victims too friendly. Equally unsuccessful in love, he regularly fails to lose his virginity. Blood spills throughout the streets of the Ciudad de Deus as gang leader Li'l Ze (Leandro Firmino da Hora) is challenged by local druglords and a gang of pre-teens known as the Runts. Rocket shoots all of this action with his weapon of choice, a camera. Director Fernando Meirelles combines visual flashiness with ...

DVD $32.19  5 stars
In this dazzling epic from Akira Kurosawa, a petty thief named Kagemusha (Tatsuya Nakadai) gets saved from a death sentence because he resembles the warlord Shingen Takeda (also Nakadai). The warlord has been fighting two other leaders for control of 16th-century Japan and impersonators often take his place during battles to put him out of harm's way. Because of Kagemusha's strong physical similarities to the warlord, he's a perfect choice for a "shadow warrior." However, the arrangement suddenly changes when Shingen gets fatally wounded while watching a battle. Adhering to Shingen's final wish, the warlord's men keep the death a secret, and Kagemusha struggles to transform himself from a criminal into a leader. KAGEMUSHA marked a welcome return for the legendary director, who had not made a movie since 1974. Nakadai, a supporting player in earlier Kurosawa films, expertly portrays the leading role(s), almost always filled in the past by Toshirô Mifune. KAGEMUSHA also features the final screen appearance of longtime Kurosawa actor, Takashi Shimura. In order to help the film get an international release, Francis ...

Russian master Aleksandr Sokurov (THE SUN, RUSSIAN ARK, MOTHER AND SON) has produced another majestic achievement with ALEXANDRA. In a rare instance of working from his own original script, Sokurov tells the simple tale of a woman in the twilight of her life who embarks on a special journey. As the story unfolds, Sokurov's deeper purpose is revealed, resulting in a work that speaks profoundly about the corrosive nature of war. Opera star Galina Vishnevskaya is Alexandra. She hasn't seen her grandson in seven years and, understanding that her life is coming to an end, she decides to visit him at his army camp in war-torn Chechnya. What at first ...
