Go To

  • Directed by Cast Member: Directed by Sammo Hung, starring Sammo Hung as Dodo.
  • Playing Against Type: The film is unusual in that although it features Sammo Hung and Lam Ching-ying, two actors famed for their kung fu abilities, neither actually perform any martial arts.
  • Real-Life Relative: Sammo Hung's real life brother makes a cameo appearance as a policeman (who walks into Inspector Wong's office without knocking).
  • Wag the Director: Golden Harvest had wanted Hung to perform fight scenes in the film, but he refused, rationalising:
    My character was mentally retarded, mentally disabled, so how can you ask me to fall down and suddenly become well again? And fight? They knew my fighting skills and wanted me to be part of the action but I thought that would have completely destroyed the tone of the film, the principles behind the film.
