Breaking News (Daai si gin) (2004)

Breaking News (original Chinese Title: (Daai si gin)) is a 2004 film about an attempt by Hong Kong Police to use the media to rebuild their reputation after an embarrassing defeat in a shootout is broadcast all over the news, however, their 'operation' goes horribly wrong. Though this film has been released all over the world, (as of now) it has never officially been released in the United States (though it has been released in Canada).

The following guns used in the movie Breaking News:

Colt Detective Special

Standard firearm for the Hong Kong Police Force, used widely in the movie by regular uniformed officer's and officer's from Criminal Investigative Branch as well as Superintendent Rebecca Fong.

• Note in real life the Smith and Wesson Model 10 is the standard firearm for the Hong Kong polce department

I believe the Detective Specials are only used by the detectives in the movie (which is also the standard issue sidearm for HKPF detectives) while patrolmen are armed with S&W Model 10.
