Synopsis:
An icon of the Hong Kong New Wave and mentor to Wong Kar-wai, Patrick Tam worked with icons including Tony Leung ( In the Mood for Love ), Leslie Cheung ( Days of Being Wild ), Kenny Bee ( Armor of God ) and others in these two inimitable classics. In Nomad two couples, equal parts rich and working class, bond and experience the frolics of youth. The arrival of a Red Army deserter brings violence and disruption prompting incredible plot twists and inspired set-pieces.
My Heart Is That Eternal Rose finds Tam in the more familiar Heroic Bloodshed genre. A young couple are torn apart by a botched Triad job that forces Rick to relocate to the Philippines and Lap to become a gangster's moll. Six years later they meet again but their reunion only reignites the danger that drove them apart.
Stunningly shot by David Chung ( Once Upon a Time in China ) and Christopher Doyle ( Chungking Express ) both films are newly restored and made available on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.
