Criterion Collection - Yi Yi/bd - Blu-ray

The extraordinary, internationally embraced YI YI (A ONE AND A TWO...), directed by the late Taiwanese master Edward Yang (A BRIGHTER SUMMER DAY), follows a middle-class family in Taipei over the course of one year, beginning with a wedding and ending with a funeral. Whether chronicling middle-age father NJs tentative flirtations with an old flame or precocious young son Yang-Yangs attempts at capturing reality with his beloved camera, the filmmaker deftly imbues every gorgeous frame with a compassionate clarity. Warm, sprawling, and dazzling, this intimate epic is one of the undisputed masterworks of the new century.
