ACCIDENT · 意外
Soi Cheang · 2009 · Hong Kong · 87 mins
We typically celebrate Hong Kong cinema for its wild, unrestrained action, but the uniqueness of Johnnie To’s Milkyway project is the way it increasingly searches for abstract qualities within the thriller. This reaches its apogee in Soi Cheang’s Accident. Drawing comparison with Coppola’s The Conversation, the story deals with an unconventional team of assassins led by Brain (Louis Koo) whose speciality is to stage-manage painstakingly complex hits so that they appear to be accidents. But a Brain will only get you so far, and as cracks open up in his oh-so-organised world, the hunter is forced into the position of the hunted, to question the extent to which events in the world are beyond his control, and to face the terrifying prospect that accidents might be more accidental than they seem. Foregrounding the gritty urban poetry that we expect from Milkyway, this film—full of remarkable compositions and compelling silences—pulls off the extraordinary combination of efficiently riveting thriller and profoundly unsettling meditation on questions of fate and randomness.
