This will probably take long here in Germany, if it will be shown at all, as Hou isn't commercial enough even for the arthouse crowd, I guess.
I have only seen one of His films "Good Men Good Women", two months ago, and it was breathtaking, lyrical, gorgeous, loveable, sad,... I loved it. There was in fact a scene from one of Ozu's film in it. 
Looking forward to this.
