Hark Tsui

Highest Rated: 100% Zu, Warriors From the Magic Mountain (1983)

Lowest Rated: 10% Knock Off (1998)

Birthday: Feb 15, 1950

Birthplace: Saigon, Vietnam

Leading figure of the Hong Kong film scene and head of his own production company, Film Workshop. Hark specializes in kaleidoscopic dramas characterized by frenzied action and a decidedly tongue-in-cheek tone. He is best known in the USA for his complex, breathlessly witty and exciting "Peking Opera Blues" (1986).
