About this product

Product Information

Two stories which revolve around cops, drugs and dreamers. In the first a cop meets a woman in a late night bar, not realising that she's a heroin smuggler. In the second a broken-hearted cop in a fast-food joint fails to realise that the counter girl has a crush on him. Cantonese and Mandarin dialogue with subtitles.

Additional InformationAcclaimed Hong Kong New Wave director Wong Kar-Wai presents a kinetic, offbeat look at his city in these two stories. The first concerns a young woman (Brigitte Lin) who has been double-crossed in a heroin deal and her budding romance with a lovelorn cop (Takeshi Kaneshiro). The second deals with another police officer (Tony Leung) whose air-hostess girlfriend has left him and the shy young waitress (Faye Wong) who lets herself into his flat and cleans for him without his knowledge. Featuring lively, stunning photography from Kar-Wai regular Christopher Doyle and the Mamas & the Papa's "California Dreaming," as part of the poppy soundtrack, this is a dazzling cult favourite.
