Johnnie To is defying expectations once again with this trailer from one of his latest projects, the film Design For Living.
Design For Living is an adaptation of the 2009 musical and reunites To with stars Chow Yun Fat and Sylvia Chang. The trio last worked together on To's breakout drama All About Ah-Long in 1989. Eason Chan and Tang Wei also star.
I am already in love with the production design in this film. I wonder how much of this comes from To's admiration of French New Wave cinema.
We would not be surprised if Design For Living is part of the lineup at this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival next month.
