A Woman, a Gun and a Noodle Shop (2010)

SYNOPSIS: A remake of the 1985 directorial debut of Joel and Ethan Coen, Blood Simple, A Woman, A Gun And A Noodle Shop centers on Wang, a miserable yet cunning noodle shop owner in a desert town in China. Feeling neglected, Wang’s wife secretly goes out with Li, one of his employees. A timid man, Li reluctantly keeps the gun the landlady bought for ‘killing her husband later’. However, not a single move they make escapes the boss’s notice, and he decides to bribe patrol officer Zhang to kill the illicit couple. It looks like a perfect plan: the affair will come to a cruel but satisfying end… or so he thinks, but the equally wicked Zhang has an agenda of his own that will lead to even more violence…
