Kwan was born in Hong Kong, and he landed a job at the TVB after receiving a mass communications degree at Baptist College. Kwan's first film was Women (1985), which stars Chow Yun-Fat, and was a big box-office success. Kwan's films frequently deal sympathetically with the plight of women and their struggles with affairs of the heart. Rouge (1987), Full Moon in New York (1989), and Centre Stage (1992), a biopic on silent film star Ruan Lingyu, are all such typical Kwan films. Red Rose White Rose (1994) is an adaptation of an Eileen Chang novel. Kwan has come out in 1997 with his Yang ? Yin, and he is one of the few openly gay directors in Asia to work on these themes. Lan Yu continues on this vein and is a retelling of a gay cyber love story.
