film fest: lost in beijing



my score = A

the good: cassavettes-esque dialogue, editing and cinematography BUT IN CHINA

the bad: excessive out of focus shots

an allegory about how money corrupts. abosolutely. the strongest acting came from the the senior actors. i found the mid 50s woman in the film stealing every scene she was in. it's also freaking amazing that this film was directed by a 31 year old woman from china - Li Yu. she's my new hero.
