FBA: My Own Swordsman review (8/10)
Even more notably, the movie has some of the liveliest and best-staged action-comedy seen so far in a Mainland movie without any offshore help: the finale in the booby-trapped inn is the equal of anything in a similar Hong Kong movie.Alas, the 1966 film is incomplete.

According to this report of Faye Wong's first Hong Kong concert, Faye sang mainly in Cantonese, but also in Mandarin and English. As is typical, Faye spoke very little to the audience, not until 35 minutes into the first night's concert, she uttered only a brief 'Hello' and 'Thank you'. Later, when singing a cover of an Eason Chan song, Faye said a few more 'Thank yous' in both Cantonese and Mandarin. (Xinhua-gallery)
