"Chicken & Duck Talk" - Michael Hui's 1988 classic satire about Chinese food versus the new - i which he plays "roast duck" restaurant owner struggling to survive under the commercial attacks by the modern "fried chicken' enterprise. The "finger linkin' good" comedy brings you laughter, perhaps a tear, as well as a glimpse of Hong Kong's appetite changes over the 1980s. Opened in July 1988, this film went from sold-out performance on the become the highest grossing film of summer 1988. Michael's brilliant screenplay and performance won him "Top 10 Chinese Picture of the Year", and the American Film Institute’s "Best Performing Actor Award" of 1989.
