‘Love Unto Waste’
Hong Kong, 1986, 96 minutes , noon Stanley Kwan’s elegant, acerbic study of young people adrift in Hong Kong recalls Antonioni’s “L’Avventura.” Tony Leung plays a handsome rich kid involved with a pretty model and befriended by two glamorous, 30ish Taiwanese women who take the younger couple in tow. This is an unpredictable, reflective and altogether sophisticated, grown-up film.
