The innovative way of the shooting.


Iron Triangle, the movie being directed by Tsui Hark, Ringo Lam and Johnnie To, which begun production at the end of July. Tsui Hark took the lead and shot the opening one-third of the movie. The cast includes Simon Yam, Louis Koo, Sun Hong Lei and Kelly Lin Hsi Lei. The story might be about a few men who, being in dire financial straits and facing the extreme stress from the society and their families, pin their hopes on getting a windfall. Unexpectedly, when they are casually talking about pecuniary problems, a mysterious man sitting next to them hands them a treasure map. However, to find out the exact location of the treasure, they have to solve layers after layers of riddles... this is the portion that Tsui Hark will be filming. How the plot will develop will be handled by Ringo Lam who will begin filming two months after Tsui Hark has wrapped up while Johnnie To will sum up the movie - again, two months after Ringo Lam has wrapped up. While the three directors will work with their own crew, they are believed to be able to achieve a consistent look and feel across all three portions of the movie, as having entered into the showbiz about the same time and been good friends for many years, they know very well of each other's personalities. The movie does not have a fixed script and the storyline will be written according to the imagination of each director. Neither of them would interfere with each other's work, they would only come together to do post-production.

Tsui Hark is one of the true greatest filmmakers of all-time. (masterpieces: chinese feast, legend of zu, seven swords, lovers)

It's the equivalent of one of those pass the paper in school exercises. Very cool when you have masters like these guys... I hope they give us some good action sequences too.
