The Greatest Lover

Released 30 July 1988 More from 1988 → Letterboxd ↗ · TMDB ↗

A delightful comedy about three illegal immigrants from China, one of whom (Chow) gets roped into a gentleman-training course - taught by Mui - in order to take revenge on some bitchy beauties who jilted a nasty fellow. Kinda like a gender-reversed My Fair Lady.
