But at 30 minutes or so, it way overstayed its welcome -- and that, in general, is how I feel about the Tsai Ming Liang works I've seen. :SYTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-12035214326238340082012-03-30T16:39:46.685+08:002012-03-30T16:39:46.685+08:00Tsai Ming Liang is not for everyone and I was so s...Tsai Ming Liang is not for everyone and I was so suprised to hear that the majority of film lovers do not care for his films (I do love him in all his indulgences though and especially What Time is It Over There? is a special film for me)<br /><br />However I can surely understand how someone can sleep during one of his films.eliza bennethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01997101330508195099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-32374340997041797352012-03-27T00:14:03.924+08:002012-03-27T00:14:03.924+08:00Hi Stefan --

(And yes, it was quite a thrill for me to spot them as I like both of their work.) The sad thing is that my pics of them came out on the blurry side! :S<br /><br />Hi Stefan --<br /><br />I can't believe you watched *ALL* of "Beautiful 2012" twice! "Go!
