Those who love Hong Kong films know Maggie Chueng. She has been in 89 films like Police Story, 2046, Hero, and Ashes of Time. This is her international debut.
Jean-Pierre Leaud (The 400 Blows) plays a quirky director that chose Chueng to play Irma Vep in a remake of the 10 episode Les Vampires. She doesn't speak French, so this makes for both comedy and resentment.
Chueng is luminously erotic in this film about film making, encased in a shiny black latex like Catwoman. Cheung goes along with the lunacy around her, and even participates at one point.
Bizarre and beautiful, this take on independent film making shines with Chueng.
