MISCELLANEOUS * (2019/10/02) Singer Endy Chow Kwok Yin over several months transformed into a fighter for the film ONE SEC (YUT MIU KUEN WONG), which earlier finally wrapped up production. For his first action film he was bruised all over. Two months before the shoot he already began special training. Everyday he would work out for six to seven hours then several hours in the ring. However before the shoot he injured his hip and back. In the end he had to work while hurt. "Several fight scenes were very tough to make, I was in so much pain that I was in a ball. Later I needed acupuncture treatment." However Endy admitted that he rather enjoyed the shoot. "It was very tough, I hope the result is good. You only live once, as long as it won't be my only action film it's fine." Speaking of the "ultimate fight" with Thai actor Chanon Santinatornkul. He said, "He was in BAD GENIUS, so Hong Kong people would recognize him. The stunt team flew over to train him. Although he was not a real fighter, he had quite the knack for it. His punches were very strong, in several fight scenes I was under a lot of pressure." * (2019/10/02) The 56th Golden Horse Award will take place on November 23rd. Yesterday the nominations were announced; this year the Golden Horse Awards was swept into a political storm. Mainland stated a suspension of film applications and many Hong Kong films also retreated from applying. Director Johnnie To Kei Fung also resigned from the Golden Horse jury president post due to "production contractual restriction with film investors", but two Hong Kong films SUK SUK and MY PRINCE EDWARD (GUM DOH) were still nominated. SUK SUK's leads Ben Yuen Fu Wa and Cheung Ka Nin (Tai Po) were nominated with MY PRINCE EDWARD's Chu Pak Hong for Best Actor. SUK SUK's other actor Patra Au Ga Man was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. The film was also nominated for Best Narrative Feature. Lee Sinjie with THE GARDEN OF EVENING MISTS and DETENTION's Gingle Wong would compete for Best Actress. DETENTION, which made NT$ 180 million in Taiwan received the most nominations this year with 12. Known as the "Ghost Queen" Lee Sinjie with THE EYE (GEIN GWAI) in 2002 won her first Golden Horse Best Actress. This year with THE GARDEN OF EVENING MISTS she was nominated with DETENTION's Gingle Wang, A SUN's Samantha Ko, SYNAPSES' Lu Hsueh-feng and WET SEASON's Yeo Yann-yann. Lee Sinjie said, "As an actor I have always hoped to be able to have more opportunities to go home and participate in Malaysia's movies. THE GARDEN OF EVENING MIST is my first Malaysian movie. Today I am very happy and moved." Lee Sinjie was touched because MISTS received 9 nominated and gave the team a huge boost. They were also recognition for Malaysian movies. DETENTION's Gingle Wang was yesterday's Golden Horse Award nomination press conference's host. When she heard that she was nominated, she truly wanted to cry. Last year's Golden Horse Best Supporting Actor Yuen Fu Wa this year with SUK SUK was nominated for Best Actor; he thanked the Golden Horse Award. "This morning I started work at 4AM until now, I still haven't digested this news. After calming down a little bit, it is something to be happy about. At least I have done all I could on my job, I also have no regret of choosing this road of an actor. This is the greatest feeling. I want to thank SUK SUK's director the most. He said that he auditioned many actors before choosing me for this role. He also chose a good co-star in Tai Po. I am already very happy with the nomination." Competing with Yuen Fu Wa would be MY PRINCE EDWARD's Chu Pak Hong, who was in a band with Michael Ning (Bak Ji). He was both surprised and pleased. "I have never thought about being nominated, I didn't know that today the nominations were announced. Although I am in this business, I never thought that I would have anything to do with it. When I was younger I would dream a little; so when I just went to the audition and found out that I was nominated, my first reaction was to scream. So far I still haven't completely accepted the fact. I would have to settle down a little first!" MY PRINCE EDWARD aside from Chu Pak Hong's Best Actor nomination, Wong Yee Lam was also nominated for Best New Director. The lead actress Stephy Tang Lai Yan performed song of the same title was also nominated for Best Original Film Song. She said, "This song is the first song that I have the impulse and passion to step into a recording studio since my single 4 years old. The feeling already mixed song and emotion into one, which is very special. To be recognized of course I am very happy." The Che Po Law starred OLD MAN AND A DOG was nominated for Best Live Action Short Fil. He was very happy about OLD's nomination. "The nomination is already a win for me. (Will you attend the Golden Horse Award?) If the director asks I will."

According to the Crime Ordinance, the maximum sentence for criminal damage without involving arson could be a 10 year in prison; according to the Legislative Council (Powers and Privileges) Ordinance, the maximum penalty for the violation of "entering or loitering in the conference hall area" is HK$ 2,000 fine and 3 months in prison. Today is Wong Chung Hiu's 41st birthday. Two days ago he was held at the Wan Chai police station for 36 hours. Last night around 7:50PM he was released. Last night the Baptist University Journalism department's senior lecturer Lui Bing Kuen posted a photo with Wong Chung Hiu on facebook and said that he happened to run into the just released god in Causeway Bay. Hong KOng Demosisto's Law Koon Chung later gave an update on Wong Chung Hiu's condition. "Thank you everyone for your concern. Wong Chung Hiu after 36 hours in police custody applied for a personal protection order through his lawyer with the Superior Court. After a hearing, Superior Court judge Lee Hong Leung issued the order. Wong Chung Hiu was already released on October 1st at 7:50 PM. Currently Wong Chung Hiu's case is related to the July 1st LegCo incident and included two charges 1: conspiracy to criminal damage and 2: entering or loitering in the Conference Hall area. Because the matter has already reached judicial procedures, we are not at liberty at reveal other details later. Thus we again thank the lawyer team that is responsible for the case, as they have provided rapid and professional assistance." According to the police, A 30 year old man named Ma and a 40 year old man named Wong each was charged with "entering or loitering in the conference hall area". The case will be tried on October 3rd morning at the Eastern Magistrates' Court. * (2019/10/02) Sammi Cheng Sau Man just returned to Hong Kong from vacation. Yesterday morning she revealed that her mother had "shingles" on social media, which gave her quite a heartache and even taught her a lesson. She would remind herself to cherish and care about her parents even more while they are around. Sammi posted, "Mi deeply believes that the Heaven would always at the right time arrange for different lessons and reminders. This time is about my dear mother. Two days ago, some very intense and very 'scary' white and red spots that would give anyone goosebumps appeared around Mama's hips. They also hurt. Actually Mama had 'shingles'. "Fortunately Mama in the 72 hours golden period went to see a doctor. The doctor said with medication it would slowly heal. Because the affected area would burn and felt heavy, Mi had quite a heartache seeing Mama like this but she could not reduce her pain ether. Over the past few days I could only spend more time with Mother. Also because Mother's 'shingles' this time, Mi reminded myself that Mother really needs the strength from us her children. Mi would need to spend more time with Mama!" "Today after finishing my own chores, I spent a lot of time with Mama. I held her hand and chatted. Mama's hand was super small, but she was able to singlehandedly raised us five siblings. Mama and I talked for a long time, randomly and in depth. Mama seemed to be a little more comfortable. Watching Mama, I completely felt like she was a child with wrinkles. Particularly cute, she kept getting kisses from me over and over. (Mi suddenly remembered when I was little and stayed at a hospital for German measles. Parents day and night took care of me......company is an alternative type of pain killer; love is also an invisible but powerful drug. I hope Mama can reduce her pain and even forget her discomfort in love." "In the film FAGARA (FA JIU JI MEI), Siu Chai (Richie Jen) said to Mi, 'With sickness, sometimes you can't told; but with aging, you can see it.' He reminded 'Yu Shu' in the film that she has always neglected the fact and needs of her father's gradual aging. Indeed, most of us in being busy and 'our own world' would overlook the fact that our parents are growing over. When parents get old, they need us even more physically and emotionally. Even more materials to aging parents actually do not mean me, love and care beats all the gold. While our parents are still around, we have to love and cherish them properly. "Mama's 'shingles' absolutely did not look like anything to be happy about, but Mi believed that to me it was a type of reminder or alarm. I have to cherish more, I also have to care even even even even even even more. #doctor says 'shingles' is due to low immunity #cherish the days when your parents are around you." * (2019/09/30) Denise Ho Wan Sze over the past few months has participated in the anti extradition amendment movement, spreading the pleas of the protesters and Hong Kong's current status around the world. Yesterday she went to Taipei for the 929 Taiwan and Hong Kong March to support Hong Kong's fight against totalitarianism. When she spoke to the media suddenly people threw red paint from behind. She remained calm and continued the interview, as she condemned the act as suppression and threat that she would not back away from. Later she held a press conference and called the behavior low and violent, condemning it as "red terror" and something that she would certainly take action against. Taiwan president Tsai Ing-wen said that the attackers would be punished severely and warned against any challenge against Taiwan's democratic rule. The police took away two attackers at the site. Reportedly they were members of the Chinese Unification Promotion Party. * (2019/09/30) Sonija Kwok Sin Nei yesterday attended a children's fashion week promotional event. Having just completed the BACK TO THE PAST (CHUM CHUN GEI) film production, she lamented how tough the job was this time around. She had to wear heavy costumes in the middle of the scorching heat and she was soaked. Because she spent the summer vacation at work, Kwok Sin Nei did not have time to go on vacation with her 7 year old daughter. She not only had to commute to the Mainland on and off for work, but she could only help her daughter Kylie study for her examinations over video chat. * (2019/09/28) The Gordon Lam Ka Tung produced, new director Ricky Ko Chi Bun directed, three heavyweight actors Patrick Tse Yin (Sei Gor), Petrina Fung Bo Bo and Lam Suet starred black comedy SAK CHOOK GOR WONG FUN earlier started production at a Yau Ma Tei nostalgic music hall. Having caught attention with GALLANT (DA LUI TOI), JJ Jia ten years later returned to work with Lam Ka Tung again as well as Belinda Yan (Ngan Chi Fei), Sam Lee Chan Sam, Zeno Koo Ting Hin, Stephanie Ho Ngan Sze and newcomer Chung Suet Ying. This time the subject revolved around Sei Gor and two close friends Fung Bo Bo and Lam Suet, as the trio tried to find the value of existence. Sei Gor in recent years mostly guest starred. This time he put on the armor again and played the role for SAK CHOOK GOR WONG FUN. He praised SAK's casting was very outstanding. "I have made a lot of movies, but working with so many kids this is the first time. Ka Tung said that he wanted me to change and prohibited me from tilting my head, we will see how much clout he has! This time I have scenes with Ah Suet, ask him to show me mercy!" Speaking of running into old friend Fung Bo Bo, Sei Gor said that it was like going back in time. "Bo Bo in my eyes will always be a little girl. Although we are old co-stars, I look forward to having new sparks as I lead her to take back our youth." Sei Gor even said that he had another mission -- to lead a group of newcomers. Fung Bo Bo has not appeared in a long time. On her first day at home she already ran into the appearance of the film's "senior angel". The trio saw each other and immediately got into a passionate embrace. They even encouraged each other. Sister Bo Bo said, "When I heard I would work with Sei Gor, I immediately flew back from Malaysia. He really is like my big brother. With Sei Gor I truly regret meeting too late." The always playful Lam Suet was very relaxed on the set. "I am learning from Sei Gor and Sister Bo Bo, but this time I have a very rare romance. I hope to show the audience what is called Uncle's Romance." Aside from scenes of getting along, they also have stressful scenes. Producer Lam Ka Tung admitted that it would be rather stressful. "This time each character would have its own burden. The challenges they face would be enormous, so they would have to slowly adjust. Luckily this time Sei Gor, Sister Bo Bo and Ah Suet had a lot of breakthrough, very actively made suggestions. I feel it is a good opportunity for newcomers to learn from." * (2019/09/28) Ankie Lau Heung Ping spent over four years to plan the film THE WISHING TREE (YUT FOR SUM JUNG DIK "HUI YUEN SHU") as a director, producer, executive producer and screenwriter. Earlier advanced screenings for the film began to take and the film will be officially released in November. Lau Heung Ping two nights ago visited many cinemas for audience appreciation events. After the screenings viewers praised the film as touching and sentimental. One special screening was for the hearing impaired. She did not expect that they would give a score of over 90 despite not being able to hear the wonderful music and the exciting dialogue, just from subtitles alone. She was very surprised as she got a shot of confidence. A WISHING TREE was about Kim, a girl who was born in the U.S. but grew up in Hong Kong. Due to her parents' separation she went to study in Germany. Ankie Beilke (Bui On Kei) played the character that after growing up returned to her beloved Hong Kong to find her roots. In the film Lai Suen guest starred. Director Lau Heung Ping said, "Years ago I produced, wrote, directed and starred in a film. A WISHING TREE is that film's continuation. The 14 year old Bui On Kei played her daughter and Aunt Suen played Bui On Kei's grandmother. The film was entirely in English and Aunt Suen personally delivered her lines!" When she was preparing for A WISHING TREE, Lau Heung Ping also hoped very much for Aunt Suen to perform again. Originally the granddaughter returned to Hong Kong to look for her long lost grandmother, but due to Aunt Suen's age her family did not want her to be too exhausted and turned it own. Thus the script was written as a regretful memories, a flashback to the previous film. Michelle Yim (Mai Suet) in A WISHING TREE played a Tai Po village aunt. Mai Suet accompanied Bui On Kei on her search in Hong Kong and brought out many touching stories. Lau Heung Ping hoped A WISHING TREE could make everyone cherish the true love between people. The film had a story of real love and was filled with Hong Kong colors, especially despite the difference between Chinese and Western cultures they were able to live in harmony. Through the film she hoped to bring more positive energy to Hong Kong people. * (2019/09/27) Aaron Kwok Fu Sing yesterday attended an insurance company event. The Sing Sing starred social hot topic film I'M LIVIN' IT (MAK LO YUN) was selected for the Tokyo International Film Festival's "Asian Future" segment. Sing Sing revealed that he became very interested after reading the synopsis one night. Because this was a movie about the Hong Kong poverty line and housing problem, no matter what offer the film would make he would agree to perform. He learned that the film received high praises at the film festival and felt very happy. The Sing Sing starred film I'M LIVIN' IT (MAK LO YUN) was selected for the Tokyo International Film Festival's "Asian Future" segment, after receiving high praises the film will hold its global premiere. Sing Sing was very happy after he got the news. He remembered before he took this role he was promoting another film at the Cannes Film Festival. The producer deliberated brought the script to show him. That night after reading the synopsis he immediately felt interested, because this was a movie about the Hong Kong poverty line and housing problem. As a Hong Kong actor he hoped to be able to do his part to make the world experience a Hong Kong story with Hong Kong film. Thus he told his company that no matter whatever offer the film would make he would agree to perform. He pointed out that after PORT OF CALL (DAP HUET CHUM MUI) he ran into another character with a lot of potential and gave him a sense of satisfaction over his performance. Sing Sing pointed out that if he would be able to make time he would attend the Tokyo International Film Festival. The DaDa Chan Jing, Kevin Chu Kam Yin, Candice Yu On On and Louis Cheung Kai Chung starred film THE SECRET DIARY OF A MOM TO BE (BABY FOOK SAU GEI) was invited to the 32nd Tokyo International Film Festival's "Asian Future" segment. Director Luk Yee Sum would attend the event with the on screen couple Kevin and DaDa. DaDa was very happy to learn about the film festival selection and praised her first time co-star Kevin as a "treasure boy". He said, "Kevin has many positive points that is worth everyone to discover, he looks very sunny and very positive. He also has his own charm, very serious at work and is a good actor with a lot of passion!" Speaking of preparing for the production, DaDa admitted that she did a lot for this character. She first cut her hair short for the first time for a film. She even made the "sacrifice" and gained almost 20 pounds for the role. She said, "I spent almost two months on molding this character. The most stressful was that I have never been pregnant before. Although I really like children, the character isn't the usual pregnant woman. She is a strong career woman who doesn't like children, because of her experience, her journey and even biological elements from the pregnancy......so I spent more time on research. I also studied many pregnancy books and was very grateful for many great Mamas around me for s sharing a lot of experience and knowledge. I hope the audience can sense my effort and sincerity from the film." Kevin was surprised and grateful for his first lead role to be selected for the Tokyo International Film Festival. He also spoke about the shoot. "The funniest was when DaDa, Sister On On and Ah Chung were doing a dinner scene. It was the first time a man squeezed my chest hard, but it didn't feel all that bad! Haha! In addition DaDa and I got along very quickly; we worked on intimate scenes on the first few days already, but no one didn't seem to have any problem. It was my first time with such a strong intimate scene so the impression was deep." * (2019/09/26) The film THE FATAL RAID (BUK YI JI JIN) two nights ago held its premiere. Actors Patrick Tam Yiu Man, Jeana Ho Pui Yu, Jade Leung Jung and Michael Tong Man Lung attended. Ah Tam admitted with a smile that the film's six actresses got him dazed and confused. Jeana was the sexiest with her midriff, while Leung Jung's eyes were electrifying. 6 actresses were all capable of fighting, in comparison he had less action. He also felt that the combat scenes should be left to the muscular Tong Man Lung. Leung Jung remembered that 28 years ago her debut BLACK CAT (HAK MAU) also held the premiere at the same site, which was especially meaningful to her. She also said that this time she was able to get into character easily because the script was well written. She did not deliberately flirt with Ah Tam. Leung Jung said that she did not have enough fight scenes in the film, but she should save them for the young girls. For real fisticuffs, she believed that aside from Hidy Yu Hiu Tung the others would not be any competition for her. She said that during the shoot she had some superficial wounds and child's play to her past internal injuries. Looking now at the young actors she would be reminded of a lot of memories. She said, "I have a lot of old wounds, both my tail bone and my neck are misaligned. After yoga they have improved. Actually young actors should take risks but they have to pay attention to safety too." She also revealed that FATAL already participated in the Okinawa and the New York Asian Film Festival. It will also be invited to participate in another film festival in Japan. She was also very happy to be able to introduce Hong Kong female action films overseas. As for Tam Yiu Man's praises, Jeana said that in the film her costume was rather exaggerated. Instead she felt that the fight scenes were more attractive. In one scene Tong Man Lung grabbed her by her hair and rammed her toward a car. Including bad takes she had to do it over a dozen times. After the film she was full of internal injuries. Since she would not fight ordinarily, fight scenes were great releases. yet after getting hurt she needed to get more massages to ease the bruising and prevent any side effect. [ BLAH OF THE WEEK ] Columns, Reviews, Interviews 1. TA KUNG PAO, SEPTEMBER 26 2019, THE WEEK IN FILM ARCHIVAL GEMS RELIVES LIGHT AND SHADOW OF HONG KONG AND SHANGHAI The Leisure and Cultural Service Department's Hong Kong Film Archives "ARCHIVAL GEMS" series with the subject of "ONE TALE, TWO CINEMAS" will screen eight movies that are related to Shanghai from October 6th this year to May 3rd next year and hold post screening forums to examine with viewers the cultural and historical connections between Shanghai and Hong Kong. Opening Film STRUGGLE "ARCHIVAL GEMS - ONE TALE, TWO CINEMAS" opening film will be the Shaw family's first film company, Unique Film Company's first release STRUGGLE (JUNG JAK, restored version, 1933). This film conceivably is that company's only existing film today, created by the Shanghai film elite of the period. The film's subject was anti-war and capitalistic class condemnation, revolving around the suffering of a young farm village couple at the hands of a land baron and their experience afterward. SONG OF CHINA (TIN LUN, 1935) was the first Chinese film with an all Chinese classical music score. In a change from the Chinese style family drama conflict, the film examined the Confucian thinking in a light format. The film was directed by Luo Mingyou and the Shanghai born Fei Mu, displaying the duo's unique film aestheticism. SABLE CICADA (DIU SIM, 1938) was shot in Shanghai, bringing the character to the silver screen for the first time and depicting the new era women image. Different from past historical films, SABLE CICADA with song and dance and elegant sets and costumes added entertainment value to a serious subject. ORIOLES BANISHED FROM THE FLOWERS (FA OI LAU NGAN, 1948) was director Fan Peilin's final film. "Shanghai Song Queen" Zhou Xuan performed many songs in the film, bringing out her and those around her's hilarious love lives in a comedic format. Focus On "New Wave" The Hong Kong film new wav that arose in the mid 70s. New wave director Tsui Hark's SHANGHAI BLUES (SEUNG HOI JI YEH 1984) studied classic Shanghai film ideas and added the slice of life that was often seen in the 50s and 60s Cantonese film and 80's comedy style to bring ou the protagonists' love story in Shanghai. CENTER STAGE (YUEN LING YUK, director's version, 1992) brought together the 30s Shanghai and 90s Hong Kong film industries, with Maggie Cheung Man Yuk as the artist of a generation Yuen Ling Yuk. Adding actors interviews about their characters, the film from different angles brought out the legendary life of Yuen Ling Yuk. This film was shot in Shanghai for many months and showed how different studios looked there back then. THE SOONG SISTERS (SUNG GA WONG CHIU, 1997) took five years to make, traversed through different places and depicted the story of three Soong Sisters' growth in Shanghai. Aside from rebuilding the places where the three sister grew up, director Mabel Cheung Yuen Ting even focused on their relationships with each other and their husbands. She used different Chinese dresses to express their unique personalities. The Ann Hui On Wa directed EIGHTEEN SPRINGS (BOON SUN YUEN, 1997) was shot on location in Shanghai and Nanjing. The story was about a couple from different backgrounds from engagement to separation, reunited over a decade later but their love was no longer there. Hui On Wa concentrated on creating the sense of helplessness of fate from the novel and even brought out original author Eileen Chang's delicate emotions and keen sense of observation. All screenings will have post screening forums that will primarily be in Cantonese with free admission. STRUGGLE, EIGHTEEN SPRINGS, SABLE CICADA, THE SOONG SISTERS and ORIOLES BANISHED FROM THE FLOWERS will be in Mandarin, SHANGHAI BLUES will be in Cantonese, CENTER STAGE (director's version) will be in Mandarin, Cantonese and Shanghainese. SONG OF CHINA will be silent (with accompanying score) and have Chinese and English subtitles. STRUGGLE will have Chinese subtitles, THE SOONG SISTERS, SHANGHAI BLUES and CENTER STAGE (director's version) will have Chinese and English subtitles, and the remaining films will have no subtitle. Tickets are available on URBTIX (www.urbtix.hk). For program details please call 27392139 or visit the Film Archive website (www.filmarchive.gov.hk). 2. TA KUNG PAO, SEPTEMBER 26 2019, THE WEEK IN FILM DOWNTON ABBEY OPENS BIG IN NORTH AMERICA Stepping into the final week of September, eight new films will open. Among them will be two Hollywood films. The Brad Pitt starred science fiction film AD ASTRA opened last week in the U.S. and came in second over the weekend, losing to the movie version of DOWNTON ABBEY.

TA KUNG PAO, SEPTEMBER 26 2019, LIGHT SHADOW PATH THE CONFLICT BETWEEN "ARTWORK" AND "PRODCUT" Is film art or merchandise? This topic can be debated endlessly. This writer is often asked how to maintain balance between artistic and commercial elements in film. Later I found a standard answer. " "Commercial films tend to focus on commercial elements, art films tend to focus on artistic elements." Some would be upset as they feel the answer is not an answer at all. Actually asking the question is just like not asking it at all. Commercial films must be sold, but film's artistic creativity also cannot be overlooked. This is the biggest conflict between creators (directors and screenwriters) and the marketing team. The major points of conflict lie in before the production begins and after the film is completed. Those in charge of film companies would not be too willing to invest in purely personal work. After work is completely it has to be released to the market, the opinions of key marketing and distribution personnel are the most important. This is the current film industry situation, these two rounds' decision makers usually are not the same person or the same team. The problem lies here. In comparison to the 80s Cinema City, Karl Maka made most of the filmmaking decisions (before Maka, Raymond Wong Pak Ming and Dean Shek Tin split). Maka evaluated all of the stories, like a teacher he would use a red pen to evaluate the story and the synopsis. If it was all red it definitely could not be made. After the film was completed he decided how to promote it, even supervised television and newspaper advertising. From film production began to release he did it "all by himself". Now because the enormous Mainland market is the most important box office source, the Maka style of management does not seem too suitable. Thus when a film starts production the boss (or management team) makes the decision. The final product's "final cut" is the distribution and marketing team's call. Because of the difference of opinion between the two approvers, directors and screenwriters are stuck in the middle. The worst situation is when those in charge of the company completely trust the latter's opinion after the film is finished. The creator's work then only has product consideration and is edited at random. Distribution and marketing teams care the most about how long the film is, whether it would be too slow (or too dull). From a scheduling angle, they would always feel that a little shorter is better than a little longer. Thus they would try their best to cut the film short. If the director says that he or she wants to create atmosphere, they would say that it is "already enough" or "the audience already knows" in order to cut the film shorter. Directors and screenwriters aside from being upset can only complain to those in the charge of the company or the boss. With bosses that have no idea what film is they basically cannot open their mouths. Understanding bosses would perhaps listen to writers and directors' opinions but in the end they would have no way to make the determination. At this time they would need expert opinions. This expert must be a veteran film producer because only he or she would know which part of a film can or cannot be cut. They would also understand how to balance the audience' feeling. - TIN LIK [ In Production Now/Soon ] Can : Sak Chook Gor Wong Fun Lit : Kill Out A Sunset d.
