And to you too my lovely Readers, today especially to Anon Korean, who just gave me possibly, the greatest news for the next couple of months! And that is…

There’s gonna be a Blu-Ray and it is over 3hrs long!

Dear Readers, my life’s mission is complete! I have read a couple of home-base reviews (via google translate) and those under 8/10 think the movie is worth awards…They gave it a 7 or less yet think it is still worth awards! Other casual viewers were 10/10 – 8. Let me know of more about this dear Anon Korean but it is safe to say that Mr Park Chan-Wook might just have done the book justice!

The words justice in the context of adaptation and Fingersmith should not be uttered within the same space and yet, here I am!

Over 3 hours of Blu-Ray (Hopefully 4K) Fingersmith goodness! Please slap me and wake me up from this too-good-to-be-true dream! If I remember correctly the theatrical cut is 2h45m meaning there is gonna be 18 minutes of extra cream and strawberry goodness on top of that already heavenly delicious cake!

Someone please freeze me and wake me up when this Blu-Ray is out! Dear Mr Freeze, if you can hear me, I volunteer to be used in your experiments to save your wife!

Oh Lord, my shelf is going to be so precious in the near future with all these great movies on it. Now if Taiwan would release a re-mastered version of Spider Lilies in Blu-Ray, I would sacrifice the rest of my life to do the Lord’s work, for I don’t need no-thing more in this world!

 

I hope they use these images for the DVD/Blu-Ray covers. They totally remind me of the covers for the Taiwanese version of ‘Painter of the Wind’ TV series Box set which looked something like this…

Once again thank you very much Anonymous Korean. Please do share more info in the future about this movie (Like where Blu-rays are listed or like where Blu-rays are listed, or like where the Blu-rays are listed!).

Good night dear Readers, but before I leave, some pics…
