Description:Among the most praised and sought-after titles in all contemporary film, this singular masterpiece of Taiwanese cinema, directed by Edward Yang, finally comes to home video in the United States. Set in the early sixties in Taiwan, A Brighter Summer Day is based on the true story of a crime that rocked the nation. A film of both sprawling scope and tender intimacy, this novelistic, patiently observed epic centers on the gradual, inexorable fall of a young teenager (Chen Chang, in his first role) from innocence to juvenile delinquency, and is set against a simmering backdrop of restless youth, rock and roll, and political turmoil.
"Brighter Summer Day" is a landmark Taiwanese film directed by Edward Yang, now available in stunning Blu-Ray format from Criterion Collection (Direct). Set in 1960s Taipei, the film masterfully weaves together themes of youth, identity, and societal change against a backdrop of political unrest. The Criterion edition features an immaculate restoration that brings out the lush cinematography and nuanced performances. Criterion Collection is renowned for its dedication to preserving cinematic masterpieces with high-quality transfers and insightful supplemental materials. Director Edward Yang was one of Taiwan's most influential filmmakers and a leading figure in the New Taiwanese Cinema movement. His works such as "Yi Yi," which won Best Director at Cannes Film Festival (2000), are celebrated worldwide for their depth and artistry. The cast includes Chang Chen?who later starred in international hits like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?and Lisa Yang, both delivering powerful performances that anchor this coming-of-age epic. Other notable contributors include cinematographer Chang Hui-kuong and composer C.M. Huang, whose work further elevates the film?s emotional resonance.
