Long Day’s Journey Into Night at the American Cinematheque

Bi Gan follows up his knockout debut with this noir-tinged stunner about a lost soul on a quest to
find a missing woman from his past. Following leads across Guizhou province, he crosses paths
with a series of colorful characters. When the search leads him to a dingy movie theater, the film
launches into an hour-long, gravity-defying 3-D sequence shot that plunges its protagonist–and
us–into a labyrinthine cityscape. China’s biggest arthouse hit of all time, the film took in more than 40 million dollars in its opening weekend at the domestic box office.
DCP. China/France. 2019. Drama, 140 min.
