bampfa.org · details Loosely based on a real-life double-homicide case, Ann Hui’s grisly debut feature is a key film of the early Hong Kong New Wave. A young couple has been murdered—strung up in the woods—and Lin (Sylvia Chang), a friend of one of the victims, takes it upon herself to investigate. Interviews provide scarce clues, but every tree, alleyway, and red coat suggest something spectral.

roxie.com · details While so many effects-driven visions of the future have faded with time, Blade Runner remains a template for imagining the neon-soaked city to come, as influential in its way as Fritz Lang’s Metropolis . Adapting Philip K. Dick’s novel into the gold standard of sci-fi noir, Ridley Scott shares much of the film’s visual legacy with “visual futurist” Syd Mead , whose design concepts helped define its unforgettable world, and with Vangelis’s atmospheric synth score.
