Chaos By Design
Director of Photography
Controversial director Angela Chan explores the "La Cage Aux Folles" demi-monde that thrives in today's Hong Kong, but which has never before been portrayed in a major movie. Alex To plays a handsome fashion designer trapped in a tangle of ambiguous relationships that becomes even more complex when he falls for a beautiful D.J. (Cecilia Yip) who, with the help of her best friend (Cherie Chung), is trying to get out of an arranged marriage. This film looks and sounds like a comedy, but has some serious comments about a veiled segment of Hong Kong.

Esta transferencia a la pantalla grande de la comedia de situación enormemente simpática de Jack Rosenthal muestra a la chica anticuada Beryl que continúa abofeteando los avances de su frustrado novio, cuyos torpes intentos de iniciar 'Percy Filth' sugieren que él mismo no está del todo preparado. Como todos los demás, Geoffrey y Beryl quieren enamorarse, o creen que lo hacen; como todos los demás, desde Adán y Eva. Pero Adán y Eva no vivían en Manchester en 1972...
