The Legendary La Rose Noire

A forgotten martial arts film set, where the paint is peeling and the dreams are even older. Two rival actresses, both claiming the mantle of a legendary screen heroine, find their on-set feud spilling into the chaotic backstreets of 1990s Hong Kong. Bullets fly between bursts of slapstick, and a hapless screenwriter gets caught in the crossfire of their explosive rivalry. This 1992 action-comedy is a vibrant, genre-bending tribute to the city's cinematic golden age, where romance is as unpredictable as a poorly timed stunt.
