Rich and Famous is a 1987 Hong Kong action-crime film directed by Taylor Wong Tai-loi (黃泰來), and starring Chow Yun-fat (周潤發), Andy Lau Tak-wah (劉德華), Alex Man Chi-leung (萬梓良), and Alan Tam Wing-lun (譚詠麟). The film was concluded by a sequel, Tragic Hero which was also released in 1987. The film is also known as Black Vengeance.<br/><br/>Lam Ting Kwok (Andy) and Tang Kar Yung (Alex) are two brothers who stick through the thick and thin. While Yung is not biologically Kwok's brother, Kwok's father adopted him long ago when he became an orphan. The two get along well at a young age and develop a powerful bond. The film than fast forwards to the 1960's when the brothers have grown up a bit. Yung is always being a troublemaker and gets in to deep trouble when he lands himself with major gambling debt. When Yung and Kwok try to pay off the gambling debt by stealing money from a gang boss named Boss Chu (柯俊雄 Ko Chun-hsiung), they land themselves in even more trouble. Eventually, Boss Chu and his men get their hands on Kwok. Yung and his sister Wong Wai-chiu (王小鳳 Pauline Wong Siu-fung) than have to beg for the help of none other than Brother Chai (Chow Yun Fat), one of the heads of the Chinese Triads.<br/><br/>Brother Chai has no need to help them. However, he feels bad for the siblings and knows that it is the right thing to do. He also wants to show Boss Chu that he shouldn't be so brutal and hard on people. With Kwok's release, Yung and Kwok become indentured workers to Brother Chai. While many stories and characters branch off from these events, two main stories drive the rest of the film.<br/><br/>1. The slow dissipation of the relationship between Kwok and Yung.<br/><br/>2. The rising tension between Boss Chu and Brother Chai.
