Edward Yang's Family Epic, One Of The Most Acclaimed Movies Of The Decade.
The extraordinary, internationally embraced Yi Yi (A One and a Two . . .), directed by the
late Taiwanese master EDWARD YANG (A Brighter Summer Day), follows a middle-class
family in Taipei over the course of one year, beginning with a wedding and ending with a
funeral. Whether chronicling middle-age father NJ's tentative flirtations with an old flame
or precocious young son Yang-Yang's attempts at capturing reality with his beloved
camera, the filmmaker deftly imbues every gorgeous frame with a compassionate clarity.
Warm, sprawling, and dazzling, this intimate epic is one of the undisputed masterworks of
the new century.
