A 5 stars film and even without the HDR so colorful you won't be dissatisfied if you get the 4K but in this case the blue ray is fine. An all time great.
My favourite Chinese film. I had my friend buy me a 2021 Blu ray edition on her recent visit to Hong Kong. Only for a few years later for Criterion to release it on 4K. I am hoping to get this as a present for Christmas from family.
Depending on the type of film stock used the amount of grain varies. Also filters and such play a part in how the grain appears. I'd rather have properly rendered grain than dnr.
