This body of cinematic work represents the pinnacle of human artistic endeavour.

Grandiose words maybe, but this standard of film making is rare in western cinema.

I put Yimou’s work from 88-2000 on par with that of Fellini, Lean, and Kubrick.

Yimou is a true cinematic genius.

And as for Gong Li, well I fell in love with her the first moment I saw her.

A truly stunningly beautiful woman, and a masterful actress.

“To Live” for my money is quite simply the finest film I have ever seen.

It is as heartbreaking as it is beautiful.

What ever this box set costs, you will not spend that equivalent money better on anything else.

You are purchasing the very best filmmaking world cinema has to offer.

Raise the red lantern is in my top 5 films of al time, can't wait to see the rest of their works!

[mariaisabelactub]

These two artists are exceptional! Admired the collaborations of both! You can't beat the tandem of Gong Li and Zhang Yimou, they both bring out the best in each other.

[Drunkenmaster]

Wow!!! This is certainly the Blu-ray release of the year!

[BatmanCK]

And just like that... something I have been waiting for (for what feels like a decade+) is now here. Already pre-ordered. Thank you, Imprint Films! This is truly a big win.

To get new copies of the older Yimou films even on DVD is more expensive than the cost of this set.

Just received my boxset this afternoon, tested out "TO LIVE", gorgeous! It's sitting on my shelf right next to World of Wong Kar Wai now, what an incredible collection!

[anthonythorne]

HOLY SHIT!!! I thought I’d never see the day!!!

[TheArtOfB]

This would be a blind buy since I'm not as informed on Chinese cinema but this looks like a great box set to dive into.

[marianar]

My favoritie artistic duo of all time «3

[williamdono]

Will the Blu-Rays be region free? I'm from Canada, so was wondering if it would work...

[Itchigo]

Is the music of the trailer from one of his movies?

[yeaboy]

Is this region free? I live in the U.S.

[MrSuckerPunch]

That is just too amazing. I waited so long for something like this! Two stupid questions though, sorry. Will the discs in the set be region b? And are your web prices in AUD? Because then I might take the gamble shipping to Germany...

I remember watching Ju Dou for the first time in my 20s and thinking, "this is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life!".

30 years later and I still have the same opinion
