Hou Hsiao-hsien 13: Contexts 4 - May 13 Night of Sorrows (Lin Tuan-Chiu, 1965)

https://notesonfilm1.com/2021/06/07/hou-hsiao-hsien-13-contexts-4-may-13-day-of-sorrows-lin-tuan-chiu-1965/ We once more thank the Taiwan Film and Audio-Visual Institute for the opportunity to see these marvellous copies of Lin Tuan-Chiu film. In the podcast we discuss the combination of genres in the film -- melodrama, court-room drama, documentary, murder-mystery, musical. We discuss the acting in relation to theatrical revue. We wonder if a scene from Hou's Cute Girl finds its inspiration here....and much more.
