 | MOVIE #1,045 • 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 • 07.03.23 PART OF THE JIA ZHANGKE DIRECTOR FOCUS [Ed. Note: The four J.Z. films (shorts + features) from 2007-2008 were written as 2-for-1 reviews. This is a joint critique with Our Ten Years (2007).] Two minor(ish) works from 2007. An 80-minute doc about the fashion industry (Useless) and an 8-minute short featuring longtime collaborator Zhao Tao (Our Ten Years). Both are pretty good but probably not essential viewing. |
