I saw The Handmaiden last night. Great film.

>>79095460

Loved the atmosphere in this.

I always like to watch more Asian kino, but 95% of the time they are just very superficial. Very beautiful, but not much behind it. There are exceptions of course.

I'd like to watch more of Thai (?) movies, but it's hard to find good rips.

Kitano's 90s crime films are really fascinating, not just as great films but the way his criticisms and contemplations evolve from genre (Violent Cop) to the audience (Boiling Point), to himself (Sonatine) and then art and life(Hana-bi). I can't think of films that feel more therapeutic to their author as his early ones
