"Tears of the Black Tiger"?
 

Anybody know anything about this Thai film? Apparently it did well at Cannes and has been picked up for release by, ugggh, Miramax.

I preordered the UK R2 release after reading about it at kfccinema.com and checking some online reviews elsewhere. Sounds pretty wild, but I dunno if it'll really be my thing. Bensonsworld.co.uk had it for about 15.99 (pounds) preorder, but I only ordered the day before release (3/4) so I don't think it's shipped yet.

Hmm, a thai western with lots of guns and wacky colors. Sounds interesting.
