FBA: Lock Destination review (5/10)
Well-shot airforce picture has more drama in the skies than on the ground.The film was previously known under the English title Sky Fighters. [Aaargh, so confusing!]
The Lotus Action Asia went to Yuen Woo-ping for True Legend.During a ceremony to mark the end of principle photography for "Priceless Treasure" on Saturday, the "Future X-Cops" director let slip that Cheung has her own household goods business while husband Tse runs one of the biggest post production companies in Hong Kong.
"Post-production work for virtually all the advertisements and films in Hong Kong are done by [Tse's] company. Very few people outside the industry know this but every industry player knows."

The Law of Attraction features the song, Creep, by Radiohead
After 176 e-mails with the director and producer, the rights to include the British band's song in the film was obtained. The band is highly popular in China and the song is used both in the film and during the ending credits. Director Zhao Tianyu said that the song was an inspiration since his college days and also for the his script. Because the song copyrights are jointly owned by EMI, Universal and Warner, the negotiations were complicated. Ultimately, the band's representatives, CAA, thought that it would be a good opportunity to promote the band.

The media had "unethically" scoured through the rubbish bin to find her draft.
It is believed that during the process of reconciliation, Sammi had promised to fulfill Andy's desire to be a father.
It is believed that Jay was in the office editing a music video when Hannah was seen entering the building. The next day, the singer left for Jordan, where he is currently filming Reversal War.
LOL... thanks for dredging up those pictures of Jackie and Zhang Ziyi. BTW, who was the latest starlet he was carousing with? I seem to remember you posted some pics about that recently.
ReplyDeleteRE: Piano in a Factory
I saw it this weekend at the SFIAFF. I liked it but thought it could have been better. It's kind of an arthouse-lite musical comedy, with hints of Jia Zhangke and Crazy Stone. One reviewer who liked it said that he'd never seen a Chinese movie like it before. Well, I didn't find it that novel, but there's a lot to like about it. I just wish the film had a little more dramatic depth, especially around the father-daughter relationship, which is the impetus for the film's story.
Finally, thanks for the flower blossoms. It's a nice reminder to remain hopeful amidst the doom and gloom.

ReplyDeleteYou're probably thinking about Lin Peng. Some have noticed her in the company of son Jaycee, too, if I recall correctly. Interesting how she appears in his productions. ;D
I really want to see Piano in a Factory!

It's cherry blossom season here so it's naturally on my mind. Also, they say, cherry blossoms serve to remind us of the temporal nature of beauty and life.
