I must track this film down! Love Tsui Hark.
Don't know if Shanghai Blues is available on DVD. I saw the film a long, long time ago in a cinema in Wanchai and remember it was a lot of fun.
Plus, the film introduced me to the song Night Breeze. Don't know who originally sang it, but do know it was first recorded in Shanghai in the 1940s. I think Night Breeze is gorgeous.
Good luck with your search!
