Set in a mining town in the 1880s, Thousand Pieces of Gold teIIs the real-Iife story of LaIu (Rosalind Chao, The Laundromat, The Joy Luck Club), a young Chinese woman whose desperateIy poor parents seII her into slavery. She is trafficked to a nefarious saloonkeeper in ldaho’s gold country. EventualIy Charlie, a man of a different ilk, played by Chris Cooper (Adaptation, American Beauty), wins her in a poker game and sIowly gains her trust. Way ahead of its time, the film resonates even more powerfulIy in the #MeToo era. But director Nancy KelIy
became a victim of prejudice against women directors within the American fiIm industry and was never offered another movie to direct in spite of extraordinary reviews, some of which compared her talent to that of John Ford.
Based on the classic novel by Ruthanne Lum McCunn, and written for the screen by awardwinning filmmaker Anne Makepeace (Tribal Justice), Thousand Pieces of GoId is a breathtaking feminist Western just waiting to be rediscovered, and is presented here in a new
4K restoration.
Special Features: Radio interview with director Nancy Kelly (courtesy of Chinamerica Radio) | Audio commentary with Nancy Kelly and producer Kenji Yamamoto | Booklet essay by screenwriter and fiImmaker Anne Makepeace | Trailer |
