Tears of the Black Tiger - Movie Review in NYT
Tears of the Black Tiger - review by A.O. Scott in NYT: "There may be crazier movies than "Tears of the Black Tiger," Wisit Sasanatieng's Thai cowboy melodrama of betrayal and forbidden love, but I can't think of one that is quite so mad about its own craziness. What is most startling is not Mr. Sasanatieng's compulsive, fetishistic assembly of bits and pieces of the movie past; this kind of pastiche has, over the past decade and a half, gone from novelty to cliche. The source of the movie's seductive appeal lies less in its vivid fakery-- the mock vintage-Technicolor hues, the musical and visual quotations, the miasma of camp hanging in the air -- than in its disarming sincerity."
There's a video review with clips on the site. Looks cool!
