I realized that it’s nearing ten years since the handover and thought “hey, that’s a good excuse for a top ten list if I ever saw one” This is what I’ve got so far:
- In the Mood For Love
- Fearless
- Infernal Affairs
- Beast Cops
- Shaolin Soccer
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon*
- Hero*
- House of Flying Daggers*
That represents the absolute no-brainer part of the list. I popped that out in about five seconds. The next two/five will take actual thought (although I also suspect I’m just forgetting some great options.) I’ll be posting my thoughts on it here as I work through those options.
The payoff, of course, will be an article ranking them and explaining my reasoning for each choice.
*I’m really torn as to whether or not I should include these co-productions. Some thought will have to go into that decision as well.
