We added a screening in December just to have a chance to show one of our favorite movies. Made in 2000, it takes the clench-jawed Hong Kong gangster drama about men betraying men and twists it into a satirical crime drama about a gangster betraying his wife. The directorial debut of an assistant director who’d worked in the trenches for years, it’s a showcase for his talent that would eventually see him become one of Hong Kong’s biggest action directors. Helmed by an awards-nominated performance from one of Hong Kong’s biggest stars, with a screenplay that received multiple award nominations, this is a chance for a whole bunch of underdog character actors and a future superstar director, to deliver a hilarious, ridiculous, hard-hitting gangster romance about marriage.
