Join the Asian Cinema Collective for a special screening of Lust, Caution (2007) at Eclipse Cinema!

From the Forbidden City, to a new life in Montreal, Joan Chen has been gracing our screens for over forty years. From iconic roles in Saving Face and The Last Emperor, to her most recent films Montreal, My Beautiful this November we are so excited to dive into Joan’s filmography and celebrate her incredible career!

About the Film

During World War II, a young student (Tang Wei) is drawn into a resistance plot to assassinate Mr Yee (Tony Leung), an official working for the Japanese puppet government in Shanghai. Posing as the glamorous Mrs Mak, she befriends his wife, Mrs Yee (Joan Chen), and is welcomed into the couple's home and the mahjong circle of collaborator wives - bringing her ever closer to her target. But her mission becomes clouded when she finds herself falling for the man she is assigned to kill.

Chen plays Mrs Yee, the poised and watchful wife at the centre of Shanghai's high society, in a sharp supporting turn that keeps us guessing how much she really sees.

About the Asian Cinema Collective

The Asian Cinema Collective (ACC) was born out of a need for community and an opportunity to share our love for Asian cinema with fellow filmgoers in Melbourne. Open to all, the ACC is a place for both the diaspora and fans of films made in Asia, or films featuring predominantly Asian experiences and stories.

Please be aware that photography and videography may take place at our events. Images and footage may be used on our social media channels, website and promotional materials.

If you'd prefer not to be photographed, please let our team know on the night and we'll do our best to accommodate you. You're also welcome to reach out to us at hello@asiancinemacollective.com if you have any concerns.
