Infernal Affairs becomes a parody

[Milkyway]

'Affairs' team to become 'Gangsters'

Parody of trilogy reunites 'Young and Dangerous' cast

HONG KONG -- Cops-and-robbers whiz team Felix Chong and Alan Mak of the “Infernal Affairs” trilogy imagines the grown-up lives of former gangland hotshots in Media Asia’s “Gangsters," which is now in production in Hong Kong and scheduled for release in early 2010.

The HK$15 million ($1.9 million) black comedy, written by Felix Chong, Chapman To (“Isabella”) and Lau Ho-leung (“Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon”), directed by Felix Chong and produced by Andrew Mak, reunites and sends up the previous roles of the top-billing duo Ekin Cheng (“Storm Warriors”) and Jordan Chan (“Initial D”) of the successful 1990s “Young and Dangerous” crime series, as retired and reformed ex-triad members.

Cheng plays a triad heir who found his true calling in academia during his stint in prison, while Chan plays a formerly ferocious gang member turned restaurant owner, whose passion changed from gangland warfare to gastronomy. The film also parodies Chong and Mak’s “Infernal Affairs” with its undercover cop storyline.

Meh, there was already a decent enough parody in the form of Love Is a Many Stupid Thing (2004).

I had no idea this movie ONCE A GANGSTER exists. I might look out for it, and while I'm at it, also for LOVE IS A MANY STUPID THING. I like good parodies.
