...Hong Kong, too, needs to celebrate its uniquely beautiful location?and put money into maintaining it. It should recognize that quality of life should be one of its lead attractions in a China where quantity rules and health is sacrificed to economic growth. Smog and an ever-narrowing harbor are destroying a natural inheritance that no other major coastal city in China enjoys. And Hong Kong should take a self-interested lead in cleaning up the Pearl River Delta. A government investing in Disneyland could surely spend an equivalent amount on such a cleanup, starting with factories and power plants...

They have tours...
...least, a busy movie. But it is also a curiously persuasive one. Maybe it is somehow easier to believe that a shady character living on the dark side of the City of Light might harbor high cultural aspirations. Then, too, Audiard has the French eye for mean streets. And cramped apartments. And less than salubrious bars and restaurants. The picture feels--as so many French films do--lived in, not art-directed...
