About The Banquet
Developer Tsang Siu Chi and his agent have bought two of a group of four properties. Rival developer Boss Hung has secured the other two. Both aim to buy all four so they can knock them down and build hotels.
Directed by Clifton Ko Chi-Sum, Alfred Cheung Kin-Ting, Tsui Hark, Joe Cheung Tung-Cho, The Banquet leans on a strong ensemble — Eric Tsang Chi-Wai, Carol Cheng, Richard Ng Yiu-Hon — 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 comedy titles of 1991.
