1h 48m
Directed by Tony Bui • 1999 • Vietnam, United States
Starring Đơn Dương, Nguyễn Ngọc Hiệp, Harvey Keitel
The first American feature to be filmed in Vietnam in the aftermath of the war, Tony Bui’s gorgeous, richly textured portrait of everyday life in a rapidly changing, increasingly westernized Ho Chi Minh City follows the intersecting struggles, hopes, and dreams of a collection of ordinary people, including a young flower seller (Nguyễn Ngọc Hiệp) who forms a bond with an ailing poet; a rickshaw driver (Đơn Dương) who falls in love with a troubled sex worker; and an American former marine (Harvey Keitel) who fought in the war and has now returned to Vietnam to find the child he fathered years before. Winner of both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival, the sublimely photographed Three Seasons captures aching moments of human connection in a city suspended between tradition and modernity.
