‘Kaili Blues’ (dir. Bi Gan, cin. Tianxing Wang, 2015)

[sinetheta]

Long Day’s Journey Into Night (地球最后的夜晚). dir. Bi Gan (毕赣). 2018.

Born in 1989, film director Bi Gan attended the Shanxi Institute of Media and majored in television production. Bi is best known for his 2015 film Kaili Blues (路边野餐), which won him several awards including Best New Film Director at The 52nd Golden Horse Awards and the Best first Feature Film Award at The 68th Locarno Film Festival. 

Long Day’s Journey Into Night stars actor Huang Jue (黄觉) as Luo Hongwu, who returns to Guizhou for his father’s funeral. There, he recalls the death of his friend Bai Mao twelve years prior. Through the investigation of this death, he becomes involved with former lover Wan Qiwen (Tang Wei), and his world begins to interweave dream, reality, past, and present.

Despite being an arthouse film, this movie was marketed as a mainstream romantic-comedy film. One of its campaigns was to time its December 31 release so that the final kissing scene occurred at midnight, prompting viewers to mirror the kiss of the protagonists. Long Day’s Journey Into Night took $37.9 million in China on its opening night, but was met with a lot of backlash as well as a sharp decline in box office numbers, as viewers were expecting a rom-com and felt horribly deceived. 

Long Day’s Journey Into Night won the Best Cinematography, Best Original Film Score, and Best Sound Effects categories at the 55th Golden Horse Awards.
