  Warning: do not watch this movie unless you are experiencing exceptional emotional resilience.

  Also: you must watch this movie.

  It is now my life's ambition to attach a fire extinguisher to the back of my bike.

  Also thinking about moving to Oslo and registering at Anders' GP practice.

  As Tears Go By 1988

  ★★★½ Watched 26 Apr 2024

  Doesn't quite land the knuckle dusted punch of the film's main inspiration, Mean Streets, but still a very good watch. Particularly enjoyed English translations of Triad nicknames e.g. Fat Carl. And Cantonese covers of 80s synthpop e.g. Take My Breath Away.
