- 4 months ago
All's Well, Ends Well Too is a 1993 Hong Kong comedy film directed by Clifton Ko Chi-sum (高志森), and released as comedy fare as is the usual custom to entertain movie-goers on the Lunar New Year celebrations. The main setting is in the Song Dynasty and this reflects in the period costumes and architecture.
This comedy follows in tune with the series of films of the same name. Chow Tung (許冠傑 Samuel Hui Koon-kit) is a licentious man who was arranged to get married along with his ugly sister Gut (吳君如 Sandra Ng Kwan-yue) to partners not of their choice. Chow, being a filial son, agrees to go along with his mother's (許冠英 Ricky Hui Koon-ying) plans. The plot thickens when Chow meets the beautiful Snow White (關之琳 Rosamund Kwan Chi-lam) and decides to marry her of which Matriarch Chow agrees whole-heartedly. Unknown to them, Snow White's magician lover, David Cooper Feel (張國榮 Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing) schemes a plan and Chow Tung was married instead to Jinx (毛舜筠 Teresa Mo Shun-kwan).
The entire film uses mistaken identity as its central theme for comic effect, this theme is repeated for All's Well, Ends Well Too 2010.
