Well, *I* liked it

Have been watching films again. Got 夜宴/ The Banquet on a 'burned from disk' that they said might not work on all DVD players. My Seven Samurai is burned so I figured I was OK. I was half-OK. The DVD stalled after three seconds when I pressed play, but was quite happy to fast-forward at a leisurely pace. So I watched it on ff, reading subtitles, and pressed play every so often to get fragments of the voices. Consequently I know what happens, and that's about it.

Then I watched Wu Ji/ 無極/ The Promise. ( Ahh. That was better. )
