Shanghai Blues (1984) ***1/2

Shanghai Blues (1984) is a screwball rom-com with lots of over the top physical gags. Because it's Tsui Hark it's, of course, visually inventive and full of political (sub)text. There's some dated humor, but it's mostly charming. Sally Yeh is the MVP in this goofy love triangle period piece.
