Small-time hood Wah Dee (Andy Lau, lnfernal Affairs) is enlisted by Triad boss Trumpet (Tommy Wong, The KiIler) as a getaway driver for a daring heist that goes wrong. Thinking fast Dee takes Jo Jo (Jacklyn Chien-Lien Wu, The Barefooted Kid) hostage to save his skin, but the bosses order her to be kiIIed. They escape and begin a forbidden reIationship while being chased by both sides of the Iaw. Produced by Johnnie To (Throwdown) and Ringo Lam (City on Fire) the film is sensationaIIy directed by Benny Chan in his feature debut. With a breakneck pace and violence reminiscent of To and Takashi Miike and the beautifuI and emotive sensibiIity of Wong Kar-wai, the fiIm features stunning performances from Lau, and Wu in her debut work. A Moment of Romance is a classic of Hong Kong cinema that has been much imitated but rarely bettered.
