Summary:"Set almost entirely in a crumbling movie theater on its final night, acclaimed filmmaker Tsai Ming-Liang crafts on elegant and tender valentine to the pleasures of moviegoing and the death of a cinematic age. Run by a lonely famale ticket clerk and a young projectionist, the theater shows King Hu's 1967 martial art epic Dragon Inn before darkening its screen forever. A sparse audience gathers, some attending to watch film, others attending in search of a connection. When a young Japanese tourist encounters someone with an uncanny resemblance to the swordsman in the film, we discover that comments about the theater's ghostly patrons may be more than rumors"--Container label.
