Brothers From The Walled City (Hong Kong Version)

YesAsia Editorial Description

In the past, the Kowloon Walled City was a haven for criminals, drug addicts, and other assorted lowlifes. With both Mainland China and Hong Kong taking a hands-off policy towards the Walled City, the place came under the domain of the powerful Triad gangsters, whose unlawful reign lasted up until the mid-1970s and perpetuated the existence of gambling, prostitution, and drug-running for many years. In 1982, director Lan Nai Cai (The Seventh Curse, The Peacock King, and Erotic Ghost Story) helmed Brothers from the Walled City, a gritty Shaw Brothers production that explored the seedy underbelly of Kowloon through the curious tale of two orphans.

When a gambling boss named Chen Yuan Lung (Kwan Hoi Shan, from Hard Boiled) ends up dead, he leaves his two sons, Chia Chin (Philip Ko Fei, from Dragons Forever and Tiger on the Beat) and Chia Kang (Chin Siu Ho, from Mr. Vampire and The Tai Chi Master) in the custody of his good buddy Chiptooth (Piao Wen Piao) While Beset by temptations on all sides, Chia Chin tries his best to make an honest living for himself while his brother Chia Kang ends up running with the wrong crowd and getting into all sorts of trouble. An unplanned pregnancy with his pretty classmate Mei Ling (Liu Li Ling, from Fast Fingers) is just the latest of his troubles. To make matters even worse, Mei Ling's dad, the hot-blooded Inspector Chang (Johnny Wong Lung Wai, form Dirty Ho and The Treasure Hunters) forces his daughter to have an abortion, an emotionally devastating decision which eventually results in Mei Ling's accidental death! Blaming no one but Chia Chin and Chia Kang, Inspector Chang sets out to get bloody retribution, no matter the cost! Will the two orphans make it out of the Walled City alive? Or are they doomed to tragedy?

  因為九龍城寨被拆,這部電影隨即被譽為不能重拍的經典。藍乃才將攝影機放在當年三不管的九龍城寨,以沉鬱和藍調的攝影風格,紀錄了殖民地時期城寨的混亂和暴戾,一對孤兒兄弟在賭檔、毒品、色情架步中成長打滾,江湖動作片中少有地拍出倫理片的感人兄弟情;最後一場困獸式的死亡搏鬥,以手提攝影機拍出瘋狂與悲涼,被大特寫雜誌選為當年十大電影。

  The Walled City was once a place out of official control -- people were living with indecent businesses of sex, gambling, and drugs controlled by triad gangs. Cheng Yuan-lung (Kwan Hoi-shan) was a Walled City gambling house boss. He left his sons Chia-chin (Kao Fei) and Chia-kang (Chien Hsiao-hou) to his friend, Chiptooth (Pai Wen-piao), when he was killed. Chia-chin grew up and kept himself away from the sins although he worked as a floor man in a cabaret. However, Chia-kang mixed with a gang of hooligans and made his classmate Mei-ling (Liu Li-ling) pregnant. Mei-ling's father, the fiery-tempered Inspector Chang (Wang Lung-wei), forced Mei-ling to have an abortion, which led to Mei-ling's tragic death by falling off a rooftop accidentally. Inspector Chang couldn't wait to take revenge on Chia-chin and Chia-kang, following unwritten underworld rules...
