Ashes of Time Redux


After 17 years, they finally decided to re-release Ashes of Time! I been waiting for this day for awhile. Wong Kar-Wai expressed his regret in the way the original Ashes of Times was made, and embarked on a journey to re-release the film. Most of the negatives were lost, however, thus a search through various movie theater archives was made to find copies of the film so that it could be redone in better quality.

Finally a version of Ashes of Time will be made where you can actually watch the film without having your eyes go blurry from all the grainy film quality, and a version with subtitles that don't take up half the screen covering the movie itself.
