Directed by Tsai Ming-liang and made in 2003, it shows the last night of a crumbling Fu-Ho movie theater in Taipei playing Dragon Inn (1966), King Hu's seminal wuxia film. The kinetic soundtrack contrasts the theater's melancholy, slow-moving denizens, including a female box-office attendant with a limp, a cruising Japanese tourist, and two stars of Hu's film. Filled with expertly timed sight gags, it is Tsai's rueful backwards glance at the disappearance of the filmgoing culture of his youth—and one of the seminal films of the 21st century, with Lee Kang-sheng, Chen Shiang-chyi, and Kiyonobu Mitamura.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/goodbye-dragon-inn-75458/", "official_url": "https://movingimage.org/event/goodbye-dragon-inn/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/e11915ec849c87bf667ea94fabcd403cfcb6b798ecfb5840f6f28268c37f58dd-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-30T18:00:00-04:00", "end": null, "place": "Museum of the Moving Image", "address": "35th Avenue, 11106 Astoria", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "zi", "start": "2026-11-06T18:30:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "The Metrograph", "address": "Ludlow Street 7, 10002 New York", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "tickets_url": "https://t.metrograph.com/Ticketing/visSelectTickets.aspx?cinemacode=9999&txtSessionId=31284", "category": "film", "tags": ["film/drama"], "description": "The screening of the experimental drama \"zi\" is followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Kogonada and actors Michelle Mao, Haley Lu Richardson, and Jin Ha, and producer Christopher Radcliff.

An epic-length work without a hint of bombast, it works its way into the hidden spaces of everyday people's emotional lives, as rich and as sad as life itself.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/yi-yi-56686/", "official_url": "https://metrograph.com/film/9999001293-yi-yi/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/c664208e384d3583a3624d1b75e222c88b76ef4710406efec17fee3a13538792-2000.webp"}]}
