JuJu Chan and Anthony Szeto Wing Wa who wed on the 1st 2. MISCELLANEOUS * (2019/10/09) The Aaron Kwok Fu Sing and Miriam Yeung Chin Wa starred film I'M LIVIN' IT (MAK LO YUN) was invited to be the 4th London East Asia Film Festival closing film. Sing Sing also with his excellent acting was selected to be the film festival's filmmaker in focus. The event has chosen 4 different style Sing Sing movies, including PORT OF CALL (DAP HUET CHUM MUI), AFTER THIS OUR EXILE (FU JI), COLD WAR (HONG JI) and I'M LIVIN' IT. Sing Sing said, "I am very happy that I'M LIVIN' IT is again selected to participate in an international film festival, which gives a huge encouragement to the film before its release. I sincerely hope that a good movie would have a good reward. Through the film language everyone would pay attention to some social topics. I am also very happy to learn that I have been selected to be the filmmaker in focus. I hope to be able to personally attend the event in London, to have exchanges with filmmakers from around the world and introduce Hong Kong films to the European audience." * (2019/10/09) Louis Koo Tin Lok worked with Jessica Hester Hsuan (Suen Huen) on the new film A WITNESS OUT OF THE BLUE (FAN JUI YIN CHEUNG). Earlier when they worked on the poster, the crew suddenly brought out a birthday cake for Suen Huen's belated birthday celebration. She was very surprised. "My actual birthday already passed, I didn't expect them to have a belated celebration for me. The older I get the less I would celebrate my birthday. My wish is for everyone to be healthy and happy." Suen Huen said that the cake was delicious, but she also said that it was very fattening. She said that she was already very happy to have everyone together and peacefully have cake. Suen Huen returned to film years after to work with Koo Tin Lok. Suen Huen said that Goo Jai's character was very odd in the film, much like Goo Jai in real life he did not like to speak. In the film they played landlady and renter with an ambiguous relationship. Suen Huen said, "On the surface they don't seem related, but it would feel like something would happen between them. In the end they didn't have a relationship. Many movies' relationships are like this, once started the very happy and special feeling is gone. The most special is always the ambiguous period." * (2019/10/08) Irene Wan Bik Ha and husband Kenny Ho Cho Kwong having experienced loss became even more loving. This year would be their 19th wedding anniversary. Earlier they flew to Hokkaido without their son Xavier to celebrate. Irene put a lot of effort into her new film THE FALLEN (DOR LOK FA). She was very happy that the film was selected for the Asian Film Festival world premiere. She happily said, "After returning to Hong Kong I immediately have to keep working hard. I am very happy for the film to be selected for the Asian Film Festival. THE FALLEN is made very well. The entire team put all of their effort into making it." * (2019/10/05) Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet Ngor would utilize the emergency law to impose a mask ban starting today (October 5th). The anti mask ban led to endless controversy as many online started protests in various districts. Many shopping centers and stores closed early. Artists Anthony Wong Chau Sun, Chapman To Man Chak, Gregory Wong Chung Hiu, Tommy Yuen Man On, Joe Tay (Cheng King Kei) expressed their displeasure over the ban, calling it absurd and would only be counterproductive. Many artists also loved to wear masks. Yesterday before the Chief Executive's press conference, some online caught Chow Yun Fat dressed in black and wore a black mask and jokingly dubbed him "Masked Fat" (sounds like Mask Law). * (2019/10/05) Black comedy SAK CHOOK GOR WONG FUN yesterday shot on location in Sai Wan yesterday. Leads Patrick Tse Yin, Petrina Fung Bo Bo, Lam Suet, producer Gordon Lam Ka Tung and director Ko Chi Bun attended. Sei Gor and Fung Bo Bo worked together again after 60 years. Sister Bo Bo said that at the time she was only 4 and Sei Gor played her father. As soon as she saw him she jumped on his lap and sat. He would carry her in his arms. Now Sei Gor joked that he could no longer carry Sister Bo Bo. During the group photo, Sister Bo Bo after fixing her make up hug Sei Gor as soon as she saw him. S ei Gor said, "I already carry her in my arms since she was little!" Sister Bo Bo also said, "At the time I was 4 years old and played a boy. The first film together was DEEP IN LOVE (LIN LEI JI), Sister (Patsy) Ka Ling played my Mommy while Sei Gor played my Papa. This time we are playing retired killers. I still call Sei Gor Daddy and show him how to use the phone. However we haven't worked together in 60 years!" She even showed her child star photos that fans sent her on her phone. Sei Gor said, "This daughter, I carried her in my arms. This time as soon as she saw him she hug me tight and gave me a kiss!" Sister Bo Bo whined, "As soon as I saw her I jumped on his lap and sat, but he said not to crush his bones!" Sei Gor joked that he could no longer carry Sister Bo Bo. He also was envious that she had two children and he did not. "My children ignore me. My son is grown and has his own world. However I have a few grandchildren!" Speaking of his daughter Jennifer Tse Ting Ting's new baby, Sei Gor pointed out that he saw a few times a year ago. Later she probably would bring the baby to see Grandpa. Sei Gor said, "I haven't seen the baby, I only found out in the papers!" Sister Bo Bo said that Sei Gor did not even know how to use WhatsApp. In order to send his photos she taught him how to use it. She would even text him to go to dinner together, but Sei Gor would be too busy with dates. He also had to hike so (Nicholas Tse) Ting Fung was not the one who would not keep him company. When asked about her earlier accident, Sister Bo Bo said, "When I was at the hospital I had a z shaped bandage on the bridge of my nose to stabilize it. Five days later it was removed. However after resting for a month, I went on stage to present an award to Sammo (Hung Kam Bo). Now I would rely on the make up artist to massage it a little. Once though I got nauseous from it, perhaps the dislocation would also affect the entire head!" Sister Bo Bo produced producer Gordon Lam Ka Tung took great care of mature actors like them. Although each time they would work 14 hours, but they would get two days off. She was able to get enough sleep and have facial treatment before she returned to work. She even had a driver. "With such great treatment, I wouldn't mind coming to work again next time. I really was scared away previously!" In order to thank Ka Tung, on his birthday Sister Bo Bo made the vegetable juice that she had for breakfast everyday in Malaysia for him. She called it "friendship juice". Earlier Chen Chen was hospitalized. How was she? Sei Gor jokingly asked which Chen Chen because there were several Chen Chen. Reporters said that they meant his former wife as they heard that she has recovered. He joked, "I have to think about what she looks like. She got better? Really?" Reporters even reminded him when he brought flowers to visit her, she got dizzy. Sei Gor said, "Really? I can't remember. I am calling her now!" Gordon Lam Ka Tung produced the black comedy SAK CHOOK GOR WONG FUN, but he did not star because everyday he had to take care of elders Tse Yin and Fung Bo Bo. Ka Tung pointed out that when he went to Malaysia to invite Sister Bo Bo, two weeks later Sister Bo Bo's car crush took place. Fortunately she was fine. He was able to invite Sei Gor for this rare team up. "Sei Gor is still very young right now, but this time I prohibited Sei Gor from chok, tilting his head. I want to show the audience an all new Sei Gor. He can be very handsome even without chok." Ka Tung revealed that Sei Gor played a retired killer who excelled in blades, after retirement he became a sliced noodle chef. In the film he had many action scenes, yet when work began he often looked stifled from not being able to chok. As soon as he had a fight scene he was alert and energetic. One day the director asked for a final crying scene from him. Ka Tung asked people to get eye drops but Sei Gor declined. He even shed real tears as soon as he took his mark. "I was worried and asked if he was fine? Sister Bo Bo had 3 types of emotions for one line. So I am very honored to be able to work with these elders." Ka Tung said that he had to go to Xiqiao for Wong Jing's new film and got sick from commuting back and forth. However he still enjoyed the experience. * (2019/10/04) Si Ming, Yoyo Ng Hiu Hiu, Wong Wing Kwan, Yeung Yuk Mui and director Sam Leong Sing Chi yesterday attended a film promotion. In the film Si Ming and younger son Lee Wing Ho even worked together onscreen for the first time. Si Ming said that in the film she and Wing Ho had many scenes, but as soon as she got into the shoot she would not treat him like her son. "When Wing Ho had bad takes, I would yell at him inside. Actually he was so nervous about working with me that he had bad takes." She also said that this time was very memorable because she has always wanted to play mother and son and her son had quite a knack for acting since he was little. Does her grandson have a knack for acting as well? She said, "No, when he sees the camera he wouldn't talk." * (2019/10/04) Gillian Chung Yun Tung's latest film was selected for this year's Hong Kong Asian Film Festival's Midnight Fever film series. Chung Yun Tung was excited after learning about the film festival selection. "I am very happy, I have to thank the cast and the crew for their contribution. Because many scenes took place on the hills, all the equipment had to be moved by hand. The shoot also took place in the heat of the summer. We went through a stormy morning and a blazing afternoon on the same day, everyone had it very rough. My costume required a windbreaker, I had to keep running on the hill. It was stuffy and hot, I even got a little dizzy." In the latest trailer, Hong Kong Film Award Best Actress Josephine Koo Mei Wa played a woman with dementia and Hong Kong Film Award Best New Actor Ling Man Lung as her stressed son; bound by fate mother and daughter Hong Kong Drama Award Best Actress Candy Yu On On and Ah Gil, as well as the righteous cop JJ Jia (Ga Hiu Sun) all gathered to find the truth behind the missing person case. * (2019/10/03) Steven Ma Chun Wai's directing debut TILL WE MEET AGAIN (SUN CHIN YEUK SEI HAU) will open in December. The story was based on the play of the same title. Early this time the play had a 11 show run to enthusiastic audience response, at that time the film adaptation was decided. Ma Jai and Josephine Koo Mei Wa continued to play mother and son from the stage to the screen. He said that when planning for the script early on, he already considered Koo Mei Wa to be the only choice for the role of "mother". He said hat because Sister Mei Wa resembled his mother very much, if she did not accept the role the film and the play would not have continued. * (2019/10/03) Louis Cheung Kai Chung in the film A WITNESS OUT OF THE BLUE (FAN JUI YIN CHEUNG) worked with his idol Louis Koo Tin Lok. Even though Goo Jai "forced" him to dive into the sea, with objects floating by, Ah Chung did not complained at all. To be able to witness Goo Jai's heroics on a speedboat was worth doing anything for! Goo Jai, Ah Chung, Jessica Hester Hsuan (Suen Huen), Cherry Ngan Cheuk Ling starred in A WITNESS OUT OF THE BLUE, which would open on October 24th in Hong Kong. Ah Chung in one scene was forced "into the sea" by Goo Jai as he did his first diving scene on film. Although the environment was less than hygienic, he said that this was a milestone for his show business career. He even joked that because Goo Jai forced him he was not mad. In addition he was able to admire Goo Jai's heroics up close, which he felt was well worth the effort. On the day of the shoot the climate was rather "muggy", the water was unusually cloudy and often had object float by. However Ah Chung was very professional, without any complaint he jumped right into the sea. He took a few gulps of the salty and dirty seawater. After returning to land he seriously said, "Today I have conquered the sea in this area, completely soaked in and embraced this natural texture. Thank you Director for arranging a refreshing scene in the water in the scorching summer. Each outstanding actor has performed a diving into the water scene, so I could consider that wish as fulfilled!" As for a scene with his idol Goo Jai, Ah Chung gave an expression of happiness. "To be able to admire Koo Tin Lok's heroics on a speedboat, I really wanted to dance for joy at that moment. Although he forced me to jump off, I wasn't mad at him." The humorous Ah Chung while in the water hilariously swam rhythmically and cracked up the crew. About Cheung Kai Chung's "forgiveness", Goo Jai said, "The director wrote for him to jump into the sea in the scene, I didn't tell him to! I only performed according to the script." Goo Jai originally was very concerned with Cheung Kai Chung's safety, but when he recalled the shoot he could not help but laugh. "At first I was worried, but as soon as he jumped in he was able to stand up. The water there actually was very shallow. Most of his body was above water." This scene required Goo Jai to speed away on the boat, which he admitted had certain degree of difficulty and danger. "Because I had to accelerate right away, the boat could be very 'rocky' and there was a chance that Ah Chung would get hit. In addition he had to accommodate the drone camera shot, so it was pretty memorable." * (2019/10/03) Gold label producer of classic films like FONG SAI YUK, FIST OF LEGENDS (JING MO YING HUNG), BODYGUARD OF BEIJING (CHUNG NAM HOI BO BIU), CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON (NGOR FU CHONG LUNG), FEARLESS (FOOK YUEN GAP), KUNG FU HUSTLE (GONG FU), CJ7 (CHEUNG GONG CHUT HO), Chui Bo Chu passed away from lung cancer last month at age 74.
