Synopsis
Frequent co-stars Sandra Ng and Stephen Chow show fine chemistry as a penniless couple who elope against the wishes of her tough-talking father. Relocating to the big city, they struggle to survive in the face of myriad unexpected situations. Made during Hong Kong cinema’s heyday, this sincere comedy-drama ably explores how regular Hongkongers make daily sacrifices for their jobs and love lives. Given ample room by a restrained Chow, Ng shines as a perfectly average yet uniquely special woman.
