Yi Yi (2000; Dir.: Edward Yang)
Canon Fodder Episode 48
Daniel and Corky turn to turn-of-the-century Taiwan to review Edward Yang’s richly Renoir-ian tapestry of humanity. Yang offers a seemingly bottomless reservoir of empathy in Yi Yi, but did your hosts appreciate the plunge or did they sink like reservoir dogs?
