Lou Ye’s hypnotic modern take on Hitchcock’s VERTIGO was highly praised by international critics
when it was first released, but banned in China. It is set in the means streets of Shanghai where
a motorcycle courier is persuaded by a black marketer to mind his flirtatious daughter. His burgeoning
infatuation ends with imprisonment and her death. Years later, he returns to Shanghai and meets a dead ringer
for the young woman. |
