Four movies begin their Oahu runs on Friday:

Chinese Box: Director Wayne Wang's movie about the transfer of Hong Kong to Mainland China as it was actually transpiring. Main character John (Jeremy Irons), a married, terminally ill British journalist who's about to be sent back to England by his paper, is madly in love with Vivian (Gong Li), a former prostitute who now runs a karaoke bar. But Vivian is the mistress of Chang (Michael Hui), a businessman with Triad connections. And John has also become fascinated with Jean (Maggie Cheung), a street person who once attended a posh English school. A steamy, world-weary romance. (R)

The Horse Whisperer: Director-star Robert Redford refines Nicholas Evans' city girl/country boy romance into a story of a gentle Montana rancher who heals a wounded horse, a girl's spirit and a woman's heart. With Kristin Scott Thomas. (PG 13).

Mrs. Dalloway: Based on Virginia Woolf's 1925 novel, the film goes from a spring day in 1923 London to a 19th-century estate and the trenches of World War I Italy, into dreams and nightmare visions and through several points of view. Vanessa Redgrave and Rupert Graves star. (PG-13)

Quest For Camelot: Animated feature about a teen-age girl and hunky blind youth who hope that rescuing King Arthur's lost sword Excalibur will win them unprecedented places at the Round Table. Voices by Gary Oldman, Eric Idle and Don Rickles. (G)
