Comes the Black Dog (2004)

Directed by Chi Yin

Overview

Compulsive gambler Jih (Tai-bao) tries to bamboozle dim-bulb gang boss Black Dog (Chen-Nan Tsai) in this satirical action-comedy that pokes fun at Taiwanese culture. To fend off Black Dog’s attempt to collect a gaming debt, Jih says he can’t repay the money because he needs it for the funeral of his father (Bin-hui Lee)—who once saved the mafioso’s life. Trouble is, Jih’s father is alive, and Black Dog plans to attend the memorial service.

Length 115 minutes
