| Spacked Out (1990)
無人駕駛
Director: Lawrence Lau
Starring: Debbie
Tam, Christy Cheung, Angela Au, Maggie Poon
Miles from the glittering skyscrapers of Hong Kong
lie the New Town urban developments: block after block of sterile
concrete monoliths that take in Hong Kong's overflow population like a
grungy sponge. The schools are holding pens, the infrastructure is
endlessly collapsing, and life seems to be happening somewhere else.
Through this teenage wasteland, director Lawrence
Ah Mong tracks four pill-popping, shoplifting, Hello Kitty!-loving
schoolgirls as they pinball their own private worlds of hurt. Shot in a
whiplash-inducing 14 days using a combination of actors and non-actors,
Lawrence Ah Mon has simultaneously put Harmony Korine, John Hughes and
Amy Heckerling to shame.
Teen angst transformed into near-religious
illumination by an all-encompassing humanity that'll break your heart,
SPACKED OUT is easily the best movie about kids you'll be lucky enough
to see.
