Motorway (bluray & CD OST) Individually Numbered slipcase version

Soi Cheang's MOTORWAY (2012) on bluray plus CD soundtrack for this special edition bluray release.

This radically pared back action film transforms driving into an intensely existential test in the tradition of Walter Hill’s The Driver and Nicolas Refn Winding’s Drive.

Abstract, yet at the same time viscerally exciting, Soi Cheang provides all the things we have come to love in Milkyway films: crisp, neo-noir nighttime images, location shooting right in the middle of Hong Kong, and an intense concentration on character as it is explodes into deeply satisfying genre action.

Cheung (Shawn Yue) is a hot-headed young cop who lives to drive. Partnered with old hand and mentor Fung (Anthony Wong) he must learn control and focus when he goes up against a legendary getaway driver from the mainland (Guo Xiao Dong). They say that when the rubber hits the road you find out your true worth, and here is the proof of that in spades.

Produced by Johnnie To, Motorway carried off Best Film and Best Director awards from the Hong Kong Film Critics’ Society in 2013. Film Comment described it as “unfiltered cinematic pleasure.”

Packaged in a numbered cardboard slipcase without classification markings that includes a 2-disc Scanavo full sleeved 14mm clear case and a reversible sleeve featuring newly created and original poster artwork. Special note: the CD artwork promotional strip is printed on a removable o-card, not directly on the slipcase.

Includes the full 43-minute CD soundtrack by co-composers Xavier Jamaux & Alex Gopher (never-before commercially released on disc).
