Synopsis
This underrated black comedy takes place in HK circa 1960-something. Ng Man-Tat is an aging gigolo with two rebellious daughters, the tough, older Rose (Cheung Man) and foul-mouthed, younger Tracy (Rain Lau). Rose spends her time losing jobs thanks to her attitude and cruising with her friends. Among her pals is Little Bun (Cynthia Khan), a dependent guy-chaser who fakes her way out of tough situations by pretending to know Kung-Fu (the “Eagle-Claw” stance, to be specific).
Tat is in trouble. He owes money to sleazy underworld types, and his prospects (unattractive aging females) are not good. Meanwhile, Rose antagonizes a female cop, and they begin a bizarre feud, attempting to one-up each other with embarrassing practical jokes. Along the way, she meets Shing (Alfred Cheung), a nerdy cop who’s fallen for her.
Things get worse: Tracy is caught dealing pills at school, Little Bun hooks up with a bag-of-crap masquerading as a man (Bowie Lam), and Tat’s underworld debtors come-a-calling…
