| First thing to know, and accquaint yourself with, is..., the fickle nature of Hong Kongs' film audience. No sooner does the latest movie hits the screens then it becomes passe and last weeks cat litter before it hits the floor. The nature of Hong Kong studios, which produces movies with a VERY SHORT shelf life, means that the latest blockbusters are often replaced by the latest fresh faced singer or beauty queen to emerge from the shadows of obscurity, and into the bright lights and voracious appertites of the Hong Kong, film going, public. |
