About this product
Product Information
Ken Takakura (THE YAKUZA) gives a career-redefining performance as an old fisherman in RIDING ALONE FOR THOUSANDS OF MILES. Estranged from his son for many years, Gou-ichi (Takakura) receives an unexpected call from his daughter-in-law, Rie (Shinobu Terajima), asking him to come to Tokyo to visit his son, Ken-ichi (Kiichi Nakai), who is in the hospital suffering from a stomach ailment. Gou-ichi decides to make the trip against his better judgment, but when he arrives, his son refuses to see him as he is still bearing the scars of the unspoken reasons why they were torn apart. Determined to reunite them, Rie gives Gou-ichi a videotape of an article Ken-ichi wrote about Li Jiamin, a Chinese folk opera master from Yunnan Province. Ken-ichi had promised Li that he would come back and film him performing "Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles," an opera based on one of the stories in the literary classic ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS; Gou-ichi makes it his mission to travel to southern China, find Li, and film the performance himself. With the help of tour guides Lingo (Qiu Lin) and Jasmine (Jiang Wen)--and a fabulous interval with young Yang Yang (Yang Zhenbo)--Gou-ichi takes off to the great unknown, trying to do right by the son who still appears to hate him. Takakura plays the old man with a quiet, dignified demeanor, moving slowly and barely speaking at all. Zhang Yimou (HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS, RAISE THE RED LANTERN) directs the film simply and beautifully, allowing the fascinating characters and compelling story to develop at a natural, alluring pace. This very different kind of road picture is sincere and emotional, with a playful sense of humor. Be sure to bring plenty of hankies.

- l***h (644)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe movie Easter Parade was exactly as promised and received quickly. I thought, in error, that there was a problem but the quick and friendly reply from the seller added in my finding a disc only that had wedged itself tightly against the side of the package. If not for the speedy reply from the seller I would not have found the movie and accidently thrown it out with the trash. Great movie and great seller.
- 9***k (251)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis seller has GREAT communication! Buy from them! The dvd was packaged well, it was an old rental, it has a few scratches, but it played great & for the price I have no complaints. I’ll certainly buy again. The only problem I have was with not the seller but the post office. Their delivery times now are delayed lately! It shouldn’t take, almost 10 days for regular mail to be delivered. I have experienced long delays from the post office recently on other orders from other sellers toJustice League (DVD, 2017) - Ex Rental - - **DISC ONLY** (#335689789444)
