Director of a number of masterpieces, presented here is the film he considered his personal favourite of all his films—and certainly his most successful—Execution in Autumn.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSince his childhood, Pei Gang (Ou Wei) has been spoiled by his rich grandmother who raised him after the death of his parents. Unable to control himself, in a fit of rage, Gang kills a pregnant woman – who indicated him as the father of her unborn child – and her cousins; for this he is sentenced to death, and will be beheaded in autumn, the traditional season for executions. His grandmother tries to save him, but this proves to be a task beyond her means. So she makes him marry the young Lian (Tang Pao-yun), an orphan raised within the family, in prison, so that the Pei line does not die out.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFeaturing a screenplay by Chang Yung-hsiang (who also wrote another Lee Hsing masterwork, Beautiful Duckling), Execution in Autumn comes to Blu-ray for the first time ever as part of the Masters of Cinema series, in time for its 50th anniversary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecial Features and Technical Specs:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eNEW 2K RESTORATION OF THE FILM COMPLETED BY THE TAIWAN FILM INSTITUTE\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEW\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003evideo piece by film critic Tony Rayns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Mandarin audio (uncompressed LPCM)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional English subtitles, newly revised for this release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA collector's booklet featuring new and archival writing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eureka Entertainment (UK)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41851567734984,"sku":"EKA70463","price":34.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/products\/executioninautumn.jpg?v=1651956837","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/es\/products\/execution-in-autumn-region-b-blu-ray","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
