The TVI Take

Wong Kar-wai's 1990 1960s-Hong-Kong-set film anchored by Leslie Cheung as Yuddy, a Filipino-Hong-Kong drifter searching for his biological mother. The structural commitment to letting the period-Hong-Kong cinematic register be the actual subject, and the canonical Maggie Cheung-and-Carina Lau supporting work, established Wong's distinctive cinematic voice.
