.Mou gaan dou Hong Kong 2002 | Andrew Lau, Alan Mak | vostEN | 101’ | digital | Cast : Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Eric Tsang, Andy Lau
▶ Nominee Best Foreign Language Film, Oscars 2004
Chen Wing Yan, a policeman, successfully infiltrates a gang while Lau Kin Ming, a triad member, becomes a mole in the police force. However, things turn into a race against the clock when both must seek each other out.
« Two of Hong Kong cinema’s most iconic leading men, Tony Leung and Andy Lau, face off in the breathtaking thriller that revitalized the city-state’s twenty-first-century film industry, launched a blockbuster franchise, and inspired Martin Scorsese’s The Departed. As the shifting loyalties, murky moral compromises, and deadly betrayals mount, Infernal Affairs raises haunting questions about what it means to live a double life, lost in a labyrinth of conflicting identities and allegiances. » (Criterion)
« A gripping thriller with grandstanding drama, muscle-clenching suspense and two great action leads in Tony Leung and Andy Lau. » (The Guardian)
