About Midnight Girls
Midnight Girls is the story of two women, Blackie (Kitty Chan) and Ling (Ng Man-Ling), who are trying to make a living for themselves so that they can escape the hard-knock existence of Hong Kong’s slums.
Directed by David Lai Tai-Wai, Midnight Girls leans on a strong ensemble — Francis Ng Chun-Yu, Kitty Chan, Ng Man-Ling — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1986.
