Synopsis/Plot:
"The Longest Nite" is a bleak, nihilistic and brutal thriller which pulls no punches and whose complex plot shows an intelligence that is both ruthless and vicious. It was directed by Patrick Yau, who also gifted the genre with the excellent and off beat “The Odd One Dies”, and was produced by current genre favourite, the prolific Johnnie To. The film was deservedly honored at the 1998 Hong Kong Film Awards with nominations for best picture, director, screenplay and editing, with lead actors Tony Leung (“Hero” and “Infernal Affairs”) and Lau Ching-wan (“Running Out of Time”) both being recognised for their excellent performances.
With its myriad twists and turns, the plot rivals “The Usual Suspects” in terms of intricacy. The story is set in Macau, where two rival gangs are attempting to negotiate a truce and join forces before the impending return of another, legendary gang boss. This process is thrown into disarray when one of the gang leaders, Lung, learns that a contract has been taken out on his life, supposedly by the other boss, Brother K. Brother K denies this, and sends Sam (Tony Leung), a dirty cop who works for him, to investigate. Sam’s methods, which generally involve trying to beat the truth out of suspects, are going nowhere until a mysterious stranger (Lau Ching-wan) arrives in town, apparently holding the key to the whole affair.
