Film Also from Empire -- unknown film makes box office history: "What first appeared to be some kind of computer error turned into startling fact as figures rolled in from across the globe. In Taipei, the film took $1.1 million in 16 theatres and an estimated $2.3 million in Taiwan. "I just turned up at the cinema and thought the title was interesting," said one cinemagoer caught coming out of the film. "I really fancied an independent, art-house movie and having never heard of this I thought it would be ideal. It was amazing! I can't believe how far they managed to stretch that £4000 grant from the BFI."
