As Tears Go By (1988) 旺角卡門 Director: Wong Kar Wai Starring: Andy Lau, Maggie Cheung, Jackie Cheung, Alex Man Wong Kar-Wai's debut feature is a wonderful outing in the Hong Kong Gangster genre. Excellent cinematography and very good acting. A low-level triad "big brother" (Andy Lau) has a hot-tempered "little brother" (Jacky Cheung) who can't keep out of trouble, and consequently is in constant need of being bailed out by his protector. Andy is super cool, but lacks the ambition to rise in the ranks of the triad societies, and once he meets his cousin (Maggie Cheung), and falls in love with her, he decides he wants to leave "the life". But it turns out that he has to bail out Jacky one more time. And this time, Jacky may have gone too far. DVD: List Price: US $24.95
