If you loved The Puppetmaster, try Three Times
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Hou Hsiao-hsien, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Puppetmaster, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
foreign gem
What Three Times is
Hou Hsiao-hsien seemingly enjoys a romantic challenge. The film presents three separate love stories set in Taiwan across 1966, 1911, and 2005. It is a handsome triptych, to be sure.
