Peking Opera Blues
AroView: One of prolific Hong Kong director-producer Tsui Hark’s most celebrated films is a brisk and playful genre-blending romp set around the Peking Opera in 1913.
A satire on “Chinese ignorance of democracy”, it places three women at its centre - a patriotic rebel who dresses as a man, a woman in search of a missing box of jewels, and the daughter of a Peking Opera impresario.
