Hou Hsiao-hsien. 1983, 99 mins. 35mm. With Doze Niu, To Tsung-hua, Lin Hsiao-ling, Chang Shih. Three teens from the Penghu Islands, in pre-adult limbo before their compulsory military service, travel from their fishing village to Kaohsiung, the second-largest city in Taiwan, where they find part-time employment. This coming-of-age-story is a string of moving vignettes, showing the boys roughhousing, sneaking into an arthouse playing Luchino Visconti&#8217;s Rocco and His Brothers, and following one of their number, Ching-tzu, as he becomes enamored of a hoodlum\u2019s girlfriend. Hou\u2019s breakout film is one of his most emotionally direct works, comparable to Fellini&#8217;s I Vitelloni, though it also anticipates his future examinations of urban anomie.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets are included with paid Museum admission on a first-come, first-served basis.
