It’s The Thomas Crown Affair Hong Kong style in the form of 1987’s Easy Money.

Commentary On Fire 13: Rouge
It seems based on the podcast-crew and time we have at our disposal that Commentary On Fire is now a once a year endeavour and this time we take matters a bit more seriously. It’s the challenge to do the commentary straight-faced but fun and most importantly INFO makes its way into the track for Stanley Kwan’s 1988 supernatural romance Rouge, starring Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung. With Kenny B and Tom K-W.
For those without the dvd, you can find the commentary timed to video, in 5 parts, here.
