Synopsis
Yonfan's '80s aesthetic reaches its peak with LAST ROMANCE, a touching but light-hearted coming of age drama with its theme of ineffable love perfectly complemented by two of the decade's most intriguing screen beauties, Cherie CHUNG and Maggie CHEUNG. Firmly grounded in the realities of Hong Kong -- the stock market crash of 1987 and the Sino-British negotiations over the colony's future, LAST ROMANCE tells the vicissitudes facing best friends So-so (Cherie), who does what she must to survive on her own luxurious terms, and Nancy (Maggie), more naïve perhaps but nonetheless love-struck by the same handsome Japanese boy who, alas, cannot fulfill both girls' destinies. An opulent time capsule of a pivotal moment in both the girls' lives and the magical place called Hong Kong.
