Product Description

Three world-class directors explore the deepest realms of sex, desire, and obsession in this luminous trilogy of films linked by theme of erotic passion. Wong Kar-Wai's ravishing drama 'The Hand', set in 1960s Hong Kong, tells of the achingly unrequited relationship between a tailor (Chang Chen) and a beautiful courtesan (Gong Li). Stephen Soderbergh writes and directs the wryly comic 'Equilibrium' in which Robert Downey Jr s anxious ad executive describes a mysterious dream woman to his preoccupied psychiatrist (Alan Arkin). Finally, in Italian legend Michelangeolo Antonioni's beautiful 'The Dangerous Thread of Things', an estranged couple embark on an erotic and sensual journey.


Synopsis

Three short films from three of the most critically acclaimed filmmakers – Steven Soderbergh (SEX LIES AND VIDEOTAPE, TRAFFIC), Wong Kar Wai (IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE, CHUNGKING EXPRESS) and Michelangelo Antonio (THE PASSENGER, BLOW-UP). These masters unite for this anthology of love, lust, sex and obsession.

2.0 out of 5 stars Three shorts, watch for Wong Kar Wai film only, 23 Jun 2007
By pointone (Bournemouth UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Three short films by three directors Michelangelo Antonioni, Steven Soderbergh and Wong Kar Wai supposedly about erotic love.

The first offering from Wong Kar Wai about the unrequited love of a Chinese male dressmaker for his courtesan client is obviously the work of the master that gave us "In the mood for Love" and "2046" but I found the plot implausible and could not get fully involved.

The second short by Steven Soderbergh starts and ends in colour and the main central section is in black and white. The film appears to be a rather pointless conceit involving a dream within a dream during the black and white section.

Apparently Michelangelo Antonioni was ninety two and seriously disabled by a stroke when he made this almost incomprehensible short comprising long stretches of nudity, usually on beaches or in the country, possibly intended to represent an erotic attraction to nature.

If you are a Wong Kar Wai fan watch the first film and turn off, if you are not avoid.

4.0 out of 5 stars Erotic tale of unrequited love, 16 April 2007
By Sally Wilton "Sally" (Bournemouth UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The first film in this trilogy is really the only one worth seeing. In Mandarin - with subtitles. This is the story of a tailor who falls in love with a courtesan he makes dresses for. The clothes in this film are fabulous and the young man becomes obsessed with making costumes to fit her fantastic figure. There are some supremely erotic moments in the film ie when he measures her with his hands and he makes love to one of the garments he has finished. Despite the eroticicm of the film there is very little flesh to be seen or any explicit [...] scenes. Most is left to the imagination. Beautifully filmed, lovely story. The other two films - dont bother!
