Shanghai Blues (4K Restoration)

One of the most beloved classics of 80s Hong Kong cinema, stunningly restored in 4K to mark its 40th anniversary

In 1937 during an air raid in Shanghai, a soldier meets a young woman under a dark bridge and they vow to meet again after the war ends. Ten years later, they unknowingly move into the same building and fall in love without recognising each other through a series of twists of fate. Stunningly restored in 4K to mark its 40th anniversary, Shanghai Blues is one of legendary director Tsui Hark’s most popular and beloved works, an irresistible and lively romantic comedy with an all-star cast.
