Remark
Election
(2005)
Hong Kong's oldest triad on the verge of electing a new boss. One of the leading contenders, Big D (acted by Tony Leung Ka-fai) privately meets Fish-Head (acted by Kwok Fung) to bribe his vote. Big D forces Fish-Head’s sidekick Jet (acted by Nick Cheung) to eat the spoon because of sneering beside him. Jet takes the porcelain spoon, breaks it, grinds it up and eats it. ‘Eat the spoon’ is a personal experience of film actor Lam Suet when he was 18 years old.
