I’ve just had word from the folks at Japan’s Grasshoppa Productions that Katsuhito Ishii’s acclaimed Taste of Tea will be hitting DVD in early 2005 and that, yes, it will include English subtitles.

Ishii is best known in the west as the key animator on the anime sequence in Kill Bill but has also directed a trio of live action films, the highly acclaimed Taste of Tea being the most recent.  Check out the trailers here, and a hugely positive review over at Midnight Eye.  Canfield caught this at the Chicago Film Festival - under threat of physical violence from me if he missed it - and swears it’s one of the best things he’s seen in years.  Maybe he’ll even review it one day.

**** UPDATE ****

I just got a note pointing out that Taste of Tea won the Best Feature award at the just completed Hawaii Film Festival ... details are here.
