lawyer" target="_blank">Lawyer lawyer" target="_blank">Lawyer (Chinese: 算死草; Jyutping: syun3 sei2 cou2; lit. 'compute death weed') is a 1997 Hong Kong comedy film produced, directed and co-written by Joe Ma.
Plot
Stephen Chow stars as Chan Mong-Gut, a famous Chinese lawyer" target="_blank">lawyer who was killed in the Qing dynasty. He must defend his apprentice, Foon, who has been framed for murder in Hong Kong. Being the third worst lawyer" target="_blank">lawyer in China, he challenges the British legal system with no evidence on hand and manages to identify the killer in a hilarious way.
Political themes
The film was released during the same year as the Transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong. As the film deals specifically with the issue of justice, it can be interpreted as responding to the fears of the PRC takeover and to the general uncertainty of what that meant to the people of Hong Kong, as long as you ignore the content of the movie itself, which implicates the UK as the source of injustice. The film promotes a normative vision of justice that can prevail over any tyranny, suggesting that knowledge of law, and the freedom to express it, is more important than brute strength (as embodied by the trials and tribulations of Chang Mong-Gut over countless foes).
