CF: Famous Directors Help Promote Brigitte Lin's New Book
Lin also made two promises to Jiang Wen at the event—the first was to write the prologue to Jiang's new book, and the second was to read voiceovers in his new movie.

CF: Three Megastars to Star in "Dangerous Liaisons"
Set in 1930's Shanghai, the story revolves around the three-way relationship between Mo Jieyu (Cecilia Cheung), Xie Yifan (Dong-gun Jang) and Du Yufen (Zhang Ziyi).

The movie revolves around an autistic girl, Xiao Mei, who wants to escape from her miserable life. In order to do this, she escapes into her own idyllic fantasy world, but eventually she must face reality. Xu Jiao and Rene Liu play mother and daughter.

Mr Yam said with his more than 20 years of participation in the Hong Kong film industry, he has a deep feeling of both the vitality and enchantment of Hong Kong cinema. The city's outstanding and wonderful films are not only timeless but are the accomplishments of many dedicated filmmakers.

Shanghai roll out of "1911". Of course, the media focused on Jackie Chan's report of a deleted sexy scene with Li Bingbing. Jaycee Chan, when asked, said that he did not know about it but, if true, he hoped that an extended DVD edition might contain it. Director Zhang Li explained that the scene(s) were deleted as the film was a serious, historical subject and did not fit. [So, naturally, it begs the question, why was it filmed in the first place? Oh, Jackie!] Later, the always stingy with praise Jackie Chan rated his son's performance as only 20/100. When asked by reporters whether someday Jaycee might be successful and copy the father-son duo Patrick Tse and Nicholas Tse, Jackie immediately dismissed it and said never in this lifetime.

The actress confessed that she still longs for love and plans to have another child with her new love
Cecilia admitted that she looked forward to her next relationship, and hoped that she would be able to have another child, giving Lucas and Quintus half-siblings.
According to recent reports from the Hong Kong media, Gillian had taken a liking to Taiwanese singer Owodog -- member of pop quartet Lollipop F -- supposedly because he resembled her former lover Edison Chen. There were also rumours that Gillian was actively courting the singer.

"For me, exceeding the time limit is just an excuse to shut down the TV program, and there would have been other excuses even if the TV station did not make the shows that long," said Jin Yong, a researcher at the Communication University of China.
Hunan Satellite Television, which produces Super Girl, has agreed to follow the broadcast regulator's ruling to remove the show and replace it with public service programming, the newspaper quoted deputy editor-in-chief Li Hao as saying.

You might think that after starring in almost 40 films, Charlene Choi Cheuk-yin would take on any challenges like a pro, but even the veteran starlet shivers over heights.

Choi, promoting her new film The Sorcerer and the White Snake at Tsuen Wan Plaza on Sunday talked about her fear of heights during filming. She was joined by filmmaker Tony Ching Siu-tung, co-stars Raymond Lam Fung and Eva Huang Shengyi.

"I was so scared when I had to be lifted high up in the sky to film one action scene," Choi said. "The wires and equipment were flown in from the US - even Jet [Li] used them. I know they should be very safe but still, I was so scared."

While filming, she held on tightly to co-star mainland actor Wen Zhang, who while also scared of heights looked calm in comparison. "He told me he had to man up because I was like, freaking out up there," Choi said.

Despite her fear of heights, the petite beauty made an exception for a pair of towering red-soled high heels she wore at the event.

Just back from promoting the movie at the Venice Film Festival, Choi congratulated Deanie Ip Tak-han, the newly-crowned best actress at the festival for her role in Ann Hui On-wah's A Simple Life.

"I didn't know her until before we went to Venice. We were both choosing the jewellery to wear on the red carpet and Deanie helped me pick my ruby earrings," Choi said. "She was so nice and friendly. She also came out to support us at Venice. I'm really happy for her win."

The Sorcerer and the White Snake is due to open on September 29. (SCMP)
