The Bride with White Hair

A special screening of the classic Hong Kong fantasy starring Brigitte Lin and Leslie Cheung

This classic of Hong Kong cinema features Brigitte Lin and Leslie Cheung on iconic form as doomed lovers caught in the crossfire of warring clans. With beautiful cinematography by Peter Pau (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and costumes by Japanese designer Emi Wada (Ran), this much-loved film is an operatic fable that combines wuxia fantasy, over-the-top action sequences and Romeo and Juliet. The film plays in a newly-restored and colour graded version, officially approved by director Ronny Yu, and is not to be missed on the big screen.
