I got a chance to catch Hou Hsiao Hsien's latest film, The Assassin, this past weekend. Visually stunning and a challenge to follow, I enjoyed it a lot and feel like it will really increase in enjoyment on future viewings. Thankfully it already has a US blu-ray release in the works, so I went have to sneak back to the theatre before Friday. Well Go USA I'd releasing it, and hopefully they will find some special features to include. I'll even take some Cannes festival panels/interviews.
