A glimpse at the lives of two petty criminals in Taipei.
Leave your thoughts about Goodbye South, Goodbye.
| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanWhat's most impressive about Goodbye South Goodbye is the way in which the film seems so completely disenchanted with the antics of its protagonists. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAnother slow moving but electrically penetrating film by one of the world's best directors, Hou Hsiao-hsien. |
| Lessons of DarknessNick SchagerHou brilliantly evokes the isolation of a generation hopelessly cut off from its past. |
| User ReviewJason HIlluminated Taiwan and its urban underclass, mingling, scheming, struggling, scamming. Long, continuous takes add a beautiful rhythm to the film, one of Hou Hsiao-Hsien's best. |
| User ReviewDerek%20 DA fantastic ride. For the story and its telling, Hou continues to be elliptical in plot and characters. Impressions of the film will come in pieces, parts, fits, and starts. The journey and the mood leave fuzzily outlined impressions on the viewer. And it's marvelous. |
| User ReviewZoran SNot one of Hou's best films, but still a solid outing. This was also more stylistically varied than most of his other films, with many long tracking shots including emphasized POV shots. The story is kind of like a more bleak Millennium Mambo combined with Imamura's Pigs and Battleships (there's even a pig deal scandal subplot) . The Fox Lorber dvd looks like a VHS quality-wise. |
| User ReviewMauro VOne of the finest films by the legendary Taiwanese director, Hou Hsiou Hsien. A superbly crafted crime drama shot in Taipei that tells it's story and creates tension using mostly mood and setting better than any other film of it's era. Hard to find in the US on DVD. Worth the hunt. |
| User ReviewPaul JHHH's pre-occupation with Taiwanese youth reached its fullest expression in this masterwork. Brilliantly honest performances, staggering cinematography and endlessly fascinating and ambiguous turning points. A bold and challenging piece of cinematic art. |
| User ReviewRyan Cwhat a beautiful film. susan sontag had mentioned this movie in an interview and i checked it out. i have since tried to seen all of Hou's films, and many of them dont come close to this one. |
