58. Dangerous encounters - First kind (1980)


Country: Hong Kong
Directed by Chui Hark

A nihilistic, anti-social movie that was quite socking for the era that was directed and immediately was banned  , to be released later butchered. In the movie - at least the edited version that I could watch -  are displayed anti-western feelings , bombings in public places for fun, refuse of the traditional values , anger: all these appear almost as natural,  without the director to judge at all his ' rebels without a cause' characters. Although the movie seems to be just provocative , without direct political comments, is quite understandable why was classified as dangerous for the - still under the British rule- state
