"The Puppetmaster" Based on the memoirs of
celebrated Taiwanese puppeteer Li Tien-lu, this poignant, multi-layered
narrative combines first-person recollections with dramatic reenactments of
his childhood and early career. "Pure cinema. Taiwan genius Hou
Hsiao-hsien gives a wholly original and magisterially orchestrated
combination of scripted scenes, staged performances, and filmed
reminiscences. The camera placement is as precise as the images are
beautiful...Hou's greatest film" (J. Hoberman, The Village Voice).
Mandarin and Taiwanese with English subtitles. Taiwan. 142
minutes. |
