Plot:	Two artful dodgers pull a spectacular heist. Raised by a leader of an international burglary ring, they are trapped in a complicated plot of betrayal and Revenge. Nominated Best Film at the 1991 Hong Kong Film Awards.
Overview:	A trio of art burglars are working the museum circuit in Europe. In the opening sequence, Joe (Chow Yun Fat), Jim (Leslie Cheung), and Sherry (Cherie Chung) stage a daring and hair-raising heist, snatching a Modgliani from a shipping container, while in transit from the Louvre to a museum in Nice. The three are orphans, raised by a Fagin-like character named Mr. Chow (Ken Tsang), who trained them to be petty thieves. They receive a proposal from a Monsieur Le Bond in Nice. He will pay a fabulous sum if they can steal an obscure painting, hidden in a private castle on the Cote d'Azur. Joe is not worried about Jim's agility, they always worked as a team. However, they are ambushed by killers--Jim is hit before fleeing on his motorcycle, with Joe covering him from behind.
