If you know me you know I only write like 1 to 2 movie reviews on Letterboxd per year. Well…am I here to tell you that this movie deserves one. Got to see it on 16mm, and what a cool experience. The music: FIRE. I was bopping my head the whole time. Also, Betty Mak Chui-Han as Wu Chin Lan 😈

“Lunatics like you have it easy while citizens like me go through hell.”
Ugh, a punch in the gut.
Masterful sound design, masterful cinematography, masterful direction. Do yourself a favor if you have Criterion Channel, and watch Alexandre O. Phillippe’s 18 minute video essay on this.
