Durian Durian (Taiwan version)

YesAsia Editorial Description

From visionary Hong Kong director Fruit Chan comes Durian Durian, an incisive and award-winning film about Hong Kong and China, and the people who move between both to find their fortunes. In an impressive debut, Chun Hoi Lo plays Yan, a Mainland prostitute who journeys to Hong Kong for a three month stay of constant, arduous prostitution. Her money made, she returns to Northern China to turn her newfound fortune into an assured, comfortable lifestyle. Simultaneously, a Guangdong family lives illegally in Hong Kong, trying to find their way in the urban jungle of the Special Administrative Region. Told in a hands-off, cinema verite style, Durian Durian is a portrait of the Chinese people filtered through their experience with post-1997 Hong Kong. Fruit Chan's revealing lens portrays Hong Kong as a place to love and perhaps leave - a shallow den of excess where one can make a fortune as long as they don't stay too long. A compelling, fascinating work from a true Hong Kong filmmaker, Durian Durian is an enthralling and intelligent portrait of urban, ugly, and unique modern Hong Kong.

　　來自南方小鎮的阿芬，與家人在港逾期居留，每天躲在旺角一家酒樓後巷靠洗碗來幫補家計，對於這個繁華都市的印象就只限於差點被舊式樓宇陝縫密密遮住的一小片天空。家鄉遠在北方一心來港賺錢的小燕，比任何一個砵蘭街的妓女要忙碌，每天往返在紅紅綠綠的色情酒店間，之前對香港的所有憧憬在日復一日的工作中頓成泡影，只能在牆上月曆圖片中欣賞都香港的夜景‧‧‧

Brilliant! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Boring in the second half? Cinema Verité?! Neither of these is a fair statement about Durian Durian. This is in fact a brilliant, complex film that explores the hard, prickly, funky, and sweet aspects of life from the perspective of a young woman overflowing with hard, prickly, funky sweetness. And since it's Fruit Chan, it's also all about China, and about all of the rest of the world.

 Interesting Perspective Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This movie with non-professional actors gives an amazingly frank view of prostitution in Hong Kong and how it attracts women from the mainland. Cinema Verite at it's best!
