Goodbye, Dragon Inn
No Longer Playing
2003 82 min
In Chinese (Mandarin)
It’s the final show at Taipei’s enormous Fu Ho movie palace, and a small band of cinephiles, cruisers, and ghosts gather to watch a screening of King Hu’s wuxia landmark, DRAGON INN. Released after years of fin-de-siècle proclamations of cinema’s flagging relevance--but before the wholesale replacement of 35mm release prints with digital projection—Tsai’s melancholy ode to moviegoing returns to us now through a double layer of phantom nostalgia.
In Mandarin with English subtitles
Music Box Theatre screens films of all genres and from every era of cinema, both new releases and repertory. These films may sometimes contain upsetting, outdated, or offensive material. While we aim to introduce many of our screenings, we do not always provide warnings about potentially triggering content within the films we screen. We encourage our patrons to research the film before they attend using trailers, reviews, or content information found on Common Sense Media, IMDb and DoesTheDogDie.com.
