Description
Directed by Tran Anh Hung (
The Scent of Green Papaya
), this gritty tale of innocence lost in the urban jungle of Vietnam fuses the neorealist style of
The Bicycle Thief
with the kinetic energy of
Taxi Driver
. In the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, a young cyclo (pedicab driver) transports passengers through the streets, trying to eke out a meager living for his two sisters and elderly grandfather. When his bicycle is stolen by a local gang, he descends into a crime ring led by the charismatic Poet (Tony Leung,
Chung King Express, Happy Together
), and his older sister turns to prostitution. In Vietnamese with English subtitles.
Tran Anh Hung---Vietnam---1996---123 mins.
