One of the film TEN YEAR's directors Kiwi Chow Koon Wai attended the premiere of his new film BEYOND THE DREAM (WAN OI) last night. Aside from leads Terrance Lau Chun Him and Cecilia Choi Sze Wan's appearance as a couple, the other 4 directors of TEN YEARS Zune Kwok Chun, Wong Fei Pang, Jevons Au Man Kit and Ng Ka Leung showed their support as well.

Chow Koon Wai said that the TEN YEARS team have not gotten together for a very long time. Over the past 5 years they were working hard in different places. "I am very touched that everyone came to support me. I hope in the future we will work together again and continue to toil in the film industry." Speaking of the Hong Kong Region National Security Law, Chow Koon Wai lamented, "I don't know, like many front line brethren say, we have to cherish each and every time we see each other because it may be the last time. It seems very sad, but I would rather cherish every moment of seeing each other. I don't hope to be occupied by fear. I hope that we correctly choose to control the future." Producer Choi Lim Ming also believed that everyone would get together again and work together, continuing to demonstrate the power of film. Was he worried that the legislation would affect creativity after becoming a law? Chow Koon Wai said, "The environment is beyond our control, affecting our creativity is only our hearts. We won't forget our original intent!"

Lau Chun Him and Choi Sze Wan was no worried that their stardom would be affected due to making a film by TEN YEARS' director. Because BEYOND THE DREAM was a romance, the subjects had nothing to do with each other at all. They with the film won the Hong Kong Film Critic Society Best Actor and Best Actress. Lau Chun Him said that the offers have not increased as a result of it because many films have not resumed production. Choi Sze Wan said that Mommy saw that she has made some achievement and was much more at ease. They would not reject making money as a couple. He suggested that they could play rivals or work together on a comedy. "Actually privately she is very funny, she likes to run around, jump around and can't sit still."

90's erotic star Constance Cheng Yim Lai recently revealed that she had bulimia as her weight dropped under 100 pounds. She fainted twice in less than two weeks and was once sent to the ICU. She posted on social media, "Let me explain my condition to everyone. I have an eating disorder. It's not the eating disorder of disliking eating but the eating disorder to reject food from the body. My body had no nutrient and had no way to absorb nutrient because I would vomit whatever I ate. Why did it get so severe that I was admitted to the ICU? The potassium level was super low in body, just 1 when a normal person should have 4 to 6. Why would I tell everyone about this? In case I am no longer around, my friends and fans would know about my condition and not from reading whatever the newspapers make up. Then I would be at peace!"

Cheng Yim Lai also posted many photos from the hospital, saying that earlier she has been transferred to a regular room. Her friend Cheung Jing visited her and brought her a lot of stuff. She also treated her to Hainan chicken and rice that was very delicious. She did a CT scan before but the report was not out yet. She also had to wait for a endocrine specialist to see her. The doctor said that she would not be released before her potassium index returned to normal, but she did not want to have any more blood drawn. The needle marks that the process left were bruised, swollen and itchy.

As the pandemic eased, cinephiles returned to the cinemas anew. The Carlos Chan Ka Lok and Kathy Yuen (Tong Yee) starred Emperor Motion Picture LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD (SEI YUN MO HOR YI) was recently released. The response was better than expected. Since opening last Thursday it has made over HK$ 2.7 million at the box office. The cast and the crew would not be more excited. Ka Lok said, "I know that cinemas still had to isolate seats and many had discounts to attract customers. In other words, actually our movie should already have HK$ 4 million at the box office. It is a very encouraging number." He admitted that despite how weak the economy was, his friends still bought tickets instead of using coupons to show their support. He was rather moved.

Tong Yee also responded, "I truly was very happy to hear this news. Actually it's not just me, even when my Mommy went for tea she heard the neighbors talked about this movie. Originally she didn't watch suspense horror films, now she says that she wants to support me at the movies. I told her, 'That's right, you go and see how people torture your daughter.'"

Cecilia Choi Sze Wan and Terrance Lau Chun Him due to the film BEYOND THE DREAM (WAN OI) fell in low. They talked about each other's positive points on Hong Kong Open Television. Choi Sze Wan mentioned that top three qualities of popular men were like to exercise, smart and humorous. Her boyfriend Lau Chun Him had all three. Lau Chun Him also praised girlfriend Choi Sze Wan as very kind, which was the positive point that attracted him the most.

They also had great chemistry. When asked whether they would value sense of security or fun more on dates. They both chose sense of security. Lau Chun Him said, "A sense of security is very important to an enduring relationship!" Choi Sze Wan agreed, "Because after dating awhile, naturally the other half would not feel as fresh. Thus fun isn't the most important in a relationship!" Speaking of falling in love in the film and in life, they both said that they never expected to.

Alex Fong Lik Sun, Pakho Chau, Hubert Wu Hung Kwan, Jay Fung Won Him and Chloe So Ho Yi yesterday attended a basketball game in Kowloon Bay. Avid swimmer Siu Fong was not as great at basketball, but he once formed a team with Louis Cheung Kai Chung and others for ten years and competed at many schools. His swimming school will open again in July, but due to the pandemic he suffered severe losses. He could only apply for government financial assistance and loan.

Siu Fong said that due to the pandemic his workload since January has been very light and he could count his jobs in two hands. Recently he was very happy to be able to take part in the pandemic relief film JUNG SI YAU OI JOI GAK LEI (THERE'S ALWAYS LOVE IN QUARANTINE), but he revealed that he was aching all over from the shoot. "Chin Kar Lok arranged for some stunts for me. I shot for three days, one day was the dramatic scenes and two days the action scenes. After the shoot I was in pain for three days, but I was very happy to have scenes with (Louis) Koo Tin Lok."

As for rumors that former girlfriend Stephy Tang Lai Yun and boyfriend Prince Chiu's relationship has faded and he rekindled the flame with her, Siu Fong denied it. "I am really not nosy. I don't know why such news would come out, making something out of nothing. Maybe someone has a new movie out. (You pay a lot of attention to Stephy.) Although I have a lot of identities, my real identity is a entertainment person." He stated that he has seen Stephy's new film because he was a Hong Kong Film Award voter. Did they have any contact? He said that they had very little contact, stressing that he did not know about her relationship. Did he meet any girl with so much time during the pandemic? He complained, "No, I am very disappointed!"

The Steve Yuen Kim Wai directed film LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD (SEI YUN MO HOR YI) yesterday opened. With the earlier advanced screenings, the opening day cumulative box office rapidly passed the HK$ 1 million mark and injected a shot of confidence into Hong Kong film. Over the first four days of the opening, the director and actors will appear at cinemas to thank the audience for their support.

Kathy Yuen (Tong Yee) in the film made a breakthrough with the portrayal of a hipster goddess. She played a psychology teaching assistant, whose personality was very down to earth and different from her past image. She said, "I used to play mostly innocent good girls, this time the character is more the hipster type. She would occasionally throw a tantrum at her boyfriend, a little sassy and stubborn." In order to get into the character more, Tong Yee not only read psychology books but several months before the production began she communicated with director Yuen Kim Wai continuously. She explained, "It was like going to class for me and Ka Lok, listening to the director's analysis of the characters. Then we would talk about our views of each scene, truly achieving the goal of the exchange and also becoming fully prepared for the performance."

Playing a couple for the first time with Carlos Chan Ka Lok, Tong Yi had a daring bed scene. It could be considered the biggest breakthrough of her film career. She felt that actually the standard was not too exaggerated. She rarely made intimate scenes and the co-star was Ka Lok, since she knew him well she did not need to worry too much. They did not need to communicate about what they would do either, where they could touch and where they should avoid. Because they were so familiar, Tong Yee complained that Ka Lok did not brush his teeth or remember to shave before taking his mark. His stubble caused her great discomfort. She admitted that she trusted director Yuen Kim Wai absolutely as well, thus she did not care too much about the issue of standard. As for whether she would have even more breakthrough performance in the future, she said that it would depend on the screenplay, the director and the co-star.

[2020.06.26] LONELY FIFTEEN CHANGED IRENE WAN'S LIFE

The Irene Wan Bik Ha and Peter Mak Tak Wo starred classic film LONELY FIFTEEN (LEN MUI JAI) opened in 1982. 38 years later it was released in Hong Kong again. A VIP screening took place two nights ago. The film brought back a lot of memories for the two leads. Robert Mak Tak Law also appeared to support his brother Mak Tak Wo.

LONELY FIFTEEN (LEN MUI JAI) was Irene's first film. She recalled that she was 15 at the time and still underage, her most rebellious period. Her parents were very strict. When she moved out during the secondary school she wanted to come in contact with this colorful world and freedom. She did not expect to be discovered by a talent scout on the street and thus began her performing artist life. Looking back at this film from 38 years ago, Irene admitted that she was very sentimental. "This film changed my life. Since then I fell in love with acting. I also turned nice, hoped to focus on acting. At the time my family was very poor, I wanted to get out into the world sooner and work to help the family. Everything seemed to be destined in Heaven."

Would she remake LONELY FIFTEEN as a producer? She said, "I never thought about it, the movie is too classic and would be very hard to surpass. I remember the girls were newcomers at the time, the production method was very daring. Many scenes were shot in secret like jumping in front of the MTR and stopping traffic in the Cross Harbor Tunnel, if discovered we would be driven away. However the resulting shots were very realistic. Back then it made over HK$ 10 million at the box office and received several award nominations. It was a good beginning. (Would there be any box office pressure with the re-release?) No, now many old movies are released again. This time I mainly want to support the director and the re-release of my first movie."

She no longer had contact with the actresses in the film, after the film they scattered all over. She said, "It was very regrettable, when I found out one of the actresses Yip Suen already joined a nunnery I was very shocked. However I would support her decision." She also said that her husband has not seen LONELY FIFTEEN, he was probably overseas at the time.

Irene was the happiest about seeing many old friends this time. She also said that Mak Tak Wo was just as bashful as before. The girls would play tricks on him until his face turned red. Mak Tak Wo said, "Boys and girls before were innocent, their faces would turn red from touching hands."

[2020.06.25] KARENA LAM REVEALS THAT HER HUSBAND IS CRAZY

Karena Lam says that the audience feels she is perfect, but actually she has other yet to be discovered potential

courtesy of singtao.com

Karena Lam Ka Yun after HEAVEN IN THE DARK (UM SIK TIN DONG) again worked with husband Steve Yuen Kim Wai in the Emperor Motion Picture LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD (SEI YUN MO HOR YI) as the lead actress. The performance is a breakthrough and the costume outstanding, leaving viewers shivering. As for working with her husband again, Ka Yun said that her husband is crazy enough to ask her to play this alternative character and shatter others' perfect image of her. She also gladly accepts the challenge and jokes that everyone can go crazy together.

Lam Ka Yun and Anthony Wong Chau Sun in the Emperor Motion Picture LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD both have breakthrough performance that is different from the audience's image of them. Ka Yun in order to bring to life this sloppy and chubby middle age woman made a lot of preparation before hand. Aside from studying acting she also gained a dozen pounds or so. "I tried to wear a fake belly, but the result wasn't great. The director told me to sacrifice a little and gained a dozen pounds or so. Actually gaining weight is very easy, as long as you have late night snacks every night you can see results in a month. I gained a dozen pounds and didn't dye my hair for 3 months. My white hair is all true. In addition the character has amblyopia. I had to wear a special made contact lens that was bigger than a HK$ 5 coin. The optometrist originally limited wearing it for only 4 hours, but putting in it and taking it off during the shoot would be rather troublesome. During the shoot I wouldn't remove it. Because people with amblyopia sees things differently from ordinary people. Before hand at home I would do eyeball exercises. The character isn't fully mobile. I tied a 5 pound weight to my calf. I wanted the body to remember the reaction, in everyday life I would practice repeatedly so it would be natural during the shoot. My daughter saw that I kept practicing with my left eye and limping when I walked, she knew that I was getting ready for the character."

After HEAVEN IN THE DARK, Lam Ka Yun worked with her husband again. She stated that when her husband asked her to perform she thought it was incredible. "The director really is very crazy. He said that when he wrote HEAVEN IN THE DARK he thought of me because the character was naive and stubborn, which I understood. However he couldn't have possibly think of me with LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD's Shum Chi Ling? I work very hard to be a good Mama and a good wife. I asked him why, he said that he wanted to shatter other people's perfect image of me because everyone thought it was very perfect. However actually I still had a lot yet to be discovered. Since he was crazy enough to ask me to perform, I had the courage to accept it. Many actors want a breakthrough performance, but may not have any suitable opportunity. I just happen to have this chance, I would gladly accept it. Let's all go crazy."

Speaking of husband Yuen Kim Wai, Ka Yun had nothing but praise for him. She said that on the set they never argued. "I have been acting for many years. No matter who is the director he is always the soul figure. I can't cross the line, even if the director is my husband it is the same. If I have any opinion I would bring it up before the shoot begins, after the shoot begins I wouldn't talk about it anymore. I would focus on doing my job. (Would you give him any suggestion?) Every time I make a movie I would constantly dream of the story, as soon as I do I would immediately tell him. He would put some of the dream into the story. (Do dreams mean you have stress?) I definitely would have stress, if I work steadily I would have no new excitement or new experience. I discover that I have to keep being stimulated to think, otherwise I would be numb." Would they keep working together? Ka Yun said that her husband is planning a new film, which finally would have nothing to do with her. She said, "A director has to work with different substance actors to have new excitement. He and I have natural chemistry, which isn't great. It would spoil him. I feel he has to work with different actors in order to improve more and more."

The actress Michelle Wai Sze Nga starred romance LOST AND FOUND IN TOKYO (SHOOK NUI OI MAN YAU) postponed its release due to the pandemic from April to mid June. Brokenhearted in the film, Wai Sze Nga went to recover in Japan and admitted that it happened to her before. "When I went on vacation by myself several times they were all because of bad breakups. I went to Taiwan and Korea. I was forgotten and after a week was better. Because when a girl travels alone she has a lot to worry about and take care of, you have no time to think too much. You can say that at the moment of getting off the plane I was already fine, traveling alone to cure heartbreak truly is effective."

Carrying 80% of the film alone, Wai Sze nga had over 20 colorful looks. At first the costume fitting took two days. During the shoot she changed so many times she grew tired of it, luckily the result was worth the effort to her. While shooting in Japan, Wai Sze Nga was the happiest about the nonstop delicacy feast as if she truly went on vacation. She said, "I kept eating at work, the team was afraid that I would get cold and kept giving me hot chocolate. I got fat, when I returned to Hong Kong for another film I lost continuity, haha!"

Aside from on screen work, Wai Sze Nga earlier also participated in screenplay creation. She even has the support of Emperor boss Albert Yeung Sau Sing's production start. Under the pandemic she hoped that it would happen this year. Since she was busy both on and off screen, would she not have time to get married? She said, "This isn't up to you. When I run into it I wouldn't resist, but I wouldn't force anything either."

The Hong Kong film industry was severely impacted by the novel coronavirus, as the production rate was almost zero. Many film workers did not eat if they did not work. The Hong Kong Performing Artists Guild and the Federation of Hong Kong Film Workers earlier called for and received donations from 10 Hong Kong film companies and others for film basic level people pandemic relief. Early this month many colleagues have already received the money.

In order to thank those who contributed to the pandemic relief effort, PAG president Louis Koo Tin Lok and director Andrew Lau Wai Keung earlier held a banquet to treat this group of behind the scene contributors including Candy Yu On On, Chin Kar Lok, Terence Siufay and J.Arie (Lui Sum Yu). Goo Jai presented appreciation certificates to them. Yu On On even happily embraced Goo Jai for a photo when she accepted her certificate. She also thanked all the volunteers for their help to make this happen in a short time. The event also celebrated Siufay's belated birthday, and he could not be more surprised.

The film LEGALLY DECLARED DEAD (SEI YUN MO HOR YI) two nights ago held a premiere. Boss Albert Yeung Sau Sing, actors Carlos Chan Ka Lok, Catherine Chau Ka Yee, Kathy Yuen (Tong Yee) and Liu Kai Chi attended. Michelle Wai Sze Nga and Keung To also showed their support. Ka Lok earlier had to stop working due to the pandemic. Instead during the period he found his passion for work again and the direction became even clearer. As for major life events, Ka Lok who was recently rumored to be in love with Shiga Lin admitted that he has been saving for a wedding, hoping to be able to fulfill his marriage plan!

Chan Ka Lok said that since his Lunar New Year film premiere has not gone to the cinema for almost half a year. He truly got sentimental. "It was early during the pandemic then, when I came to the cinema I had to wear a mask and be completely disinfected. The atmosphere was very tense. Although now the 'gathering restriction order' was still in place, everyone felt much better.
