- About the film: Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003) by Tsai Ming-liang: In an old Taipei movie theatre, on the eve of a 'temporary closing', King Hu's 1967 wuxia classic Dragon Inn plays to dwindling audience. Lonely souls cruise the aisles for companionship while two actors from Hu's film watch themselves writ large, perhaps for the last time., Is cinema really dying? As movie houses close and corporations dominate, the art form is at risk of changing beyond recognition. In this wide-ranging and elegiac essay, Nick Pinkerton reflects upon Tsai Ming-liang’s 2003 film Goodbye, Dragon Inn, a modern classic haunted by the ghosts and portents of a culture in flux.
