The Infernal Affairs Trilogy [Criterion Collection] [Blu-ray]

Wong Kar-Wai

Overview

"The Hong Kong crime drama was jolted to new life with the release of the Infernal Affairs trilogy, a bracing, explosively stylish critical and commercial triumph that introduced a dazzling level of narrative and thematic complexity to the genre with its gripping saga of two rival moles-played by superstars Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Andy Lau Tak-wah-who navigate slippery moral choices as they move between the intersecting territories of Hong Kong's police force and its criminal underworld. Set during the uncertainty of the city-state's handover from Britain to China and steeped in Buddhist philosophy, these ingeniously crafted tales of self-deception and betrayal mirror Hong Kong's own fractured identity and the psychic schisms of life in a postcolonial purgatory. Films in this set: Infernal Affairs (2002) Infernal Affairs II (2003) Infernal Affairs III (2003)"
