I love this film. I adore Zhang Yimou and Gong Li. I've waited for this on DVD since DVD began. And what do we get? A shit video transfer with picture quality inferior to my worn-out ten-year-old VHS tape, awful sound, and poorly synched subtitles. WTF!?
Thank God I got it via Netflix instead of buying it (that's how I ended up with a shitty DVD of
Ju-Dou). I couldn't sit through ten minutes.
I suppose the new
Story of Qiu Ju is probably as poor. These films cry out for Criterion treatment!
