Long Day’s Journey Into Night (2018) is a very trippy film by Gan Bi. Very dreamy and trippy. I wasn’t quite sure what I was watching here for a while as I was mesmerized by the mise-en-scene and the technical virtuosity of the camera work. Time is definitely out of joint here in the noirish nightmare taking place in the small Chinese town of Kaili. Highly recommend this unusual film.
Interesting. For a moment, I thought this was a remake of the 1962 film, with Katherine Hepburn and Jason Robards, a totally different film to what you describe here, but still worthy of viewing. Where can you find this 2018 version? I’d like to see it.

I saw it on the Criterion Channel which is a premium movie streaming service.
Thanks for you comments. Quite a good movie. I hope you get a chance to see it.

It’s piqued my interest. Is it more of a thriller?x

Yeah I’d say so. But hard to categorize. Very atmospheric. Long on style but short on plot. I loved it however!
