That Enchanting Night (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)

Product Description

Director Chor Yuen, best known abroad for helming high-flying 70s wuxia classics like Heaven Sword & Dragon Sabre & Clan of Amazons, first made his name churning out romantic comedies in the 1960s. He returned to his roots in the 80s, although That Enchanting Night (1987) gets a shot-in-the-arm of adrenaline courtesy of its producer, Jackie Chan, & his Stuntmens Association. Still, action acrobatics take a back seat to affairs of the heart, & That Enchanting Night reminds audiences that the director of Swordsman & Enchantress was also a master of more lighthearted fare such as the comedy classic House of 72 Tenants.

That Enchanting Night chronicles the romantic ups & downs of Ling & Feng, two girls from Macau whose lifelong friendship is put to the test when they both fall for the same guy. Ling eventually wins handsome Wahs affections, much to Fengs chagrin. But when Wah leaves Ling
- & leaves her pregnant
- Feng forgoes her bitter feelings to help her friend arrange a fake marriage to an impossibly effeminate acquaintance. All seems well until unexpected romantic stirrings from Lings pseudo-husband & the sudden return of Wah knocks the girls for a loop & leaves them scrambling to untangle the messy threads of their love lives!
