Chaos By Design

Release Date: 1988-04-29

Overview: 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.

Rating: 6.3 / 10

Reviews

ColinJ:

A very enjoyably HK farce that treats the subject of homosexuality with far more class and decency than the average HK comedy....
