Movie Description:
Set almost entirely in a crumbling movie theater on its final night, acclaimed filmmaker Tsai Ming-Liang crafts an elegant and tender valentineto the pleasures of moviegoing on the death of a cinematic age. Run by a lone-ly female ticket clerk and a young projectionist, the theater shows KingHu`s 1968 martial arts epic Dragon Inn before darkening its screen forever. A sparse audiencegathers - some attendingto watch film, others attending insearch of a connection. When a young Japanese tourist encounters someone withan uncanny resemblance to the swordsman in the film, we discover that commentsabout the theater`s ghastly patrons may be more than rumors.
