Leung Wing Kei, June Lam Siu Ha, Tsui Tin Yau, Hanjin Tan (Chan Woon Yan),
Lam Suet in the Lunar New Year film MISSBEHAVIOR (GUNG HEI BAK POR) will
be released on January 31st. The film poster was officially released
yesterday. DaDa curiously asked director Pang Ho Cheung about her
character's name in the film. He answered, "All the ones with big busts
are named Lin, like many in renovation are called Brother Fai, four eyes
called Ah Ming, weaklings called Ah Keung, didn't you notice?" DaDa
said, "No everyone with big busts are called Lin." The director said, "I
feel in general it's not right for people with big busts to be without
'Lin', so your name is wrong." DaDa said, "So I should be called Chan
Lin or Chan Jing Lin."
Director Ringo Lam Lan Tung passed away on the 29th last
month at the age of 63. Two nights ago a wake was held at Po Fook Hill.
Friends like Chow Yun Fat and Johnnie To Kei Fung paid their respect.
Yesterday morning To Kei Fung and his wife, Vincent Wan Yeung
Ming and Soi Cheang Po Shui arrived to send their friend on his final
journey. Around 9AM the funeral began. To Kei Fung's assistant came out
and said, "I know that everyone has their assignments, please just take
one photo. This is what Mrs. Lam wants. Thank you everyone!"
Later several employees brought out three partitions to separate
the media. After the ceremony ended, Lam Lan Tung's family left in the
hearse and tour bus. The hearse was covered in white cloth, probably to
keep the family from media exposure.
Friends including To Kei Fung, Tsui Hark, John Shum Kin Fun and
Sylvia Chang will hold a memorial on the 26th for friends to salute
director Lam Lan Tung one last time.

The Hong Kong Film Award winning director Ringo Lam Lan
Tung suddenly passed away at his home at the end of last month at the age
of 63. The news shocked the film industry. His family yesterday held
services at Po Fook Hill. The funeral will take place today at 11PM. The
family followed Director Lam's wishes with a low key, private, closed
door funeral.
At the hall was a photo of Lam Lan Tung in a suit, next to the
white and pink roses and above was a banner that said "Forever Missed".
Despite the family stating that no visit or floral arrangement would be
necessary, many of Director Lam's friends like Wong Kar Wai, Eric Tsang
Chi Wai, Shawn Yue Man Lok, Wayne Lai Yiu Cheung and his wife, Julian
Cheung Chi Lam and his wife all sent floral arrangements.
Director Johnnie To Kei Fung who took part in the funeral
planning arrived around 4PM to help. When he arrived he looked solemn
and entered the hall quickly.
Around 6PM, a friend of Lam Lan Tung for many years, Chow Yun Fat
and his wife arrived. Fat Gor saw the media and waved in acknowledgement.
Fat Soh revealed that they just returned from working in Macau and were a
little tired so they declined any interview. Fat Gor stayed for a hour and
left with Fat Soh. When asked if Fat Gor would send his late friend off
on his final journey this morning, he did not reply and left with his wife.
The Hong Kong Film Directors' Guild earlier held the
"Master Class in Film Directing 2018 commencement ceremony" and screened
10 graduation micro movies. Patrick Tam Yiu Man supported Hong Kong film
new blood and performed in one of the graduating students' graduation
film TIN CHUN MO CHEH. In it Ah Tam played a single father of a daughter,
played by Wong Sze Nga. They were not the usual father and daughter. Ah
Tam's excellent performance won high praises and applause from all the
colleagues on hand and the film finally won the "2018 Most Popular Short
Film".
Ah Tam was very grateful for everyone's good review of the film.
He said that unfortunately he had to work and was unable to attend the
graduation ceremony. He was very happy for the team and commended all
the films in competition as very high quality. Each student and each
performance put in great effort. He was busy with his new film. In order
to support the new generation in the film industry, he sacrificed his
rest time. Ah Tam said, "The real goal is to promote new forces in film,
seeing the students' dreams and effort Hong Kong film is full of hope."
Ah Tam also praised his co-star Wong Sze Nga. "She and I worked
together very pleasantly. Now before we got our marks, aside from
learning our lines she was doing her homework. She really is a smart
girl! Although Wong Sze Nga is just a little girl, when she and I work
together we feel she is like a very experienced veteran. We were full of
chemistry."
Director Ringo Lam Lan Tung passed away at home at the end
of last month at age 63. His family today began services for him in Po
Fook Hill in Shatin with the funeral to take place the next day. Because
the famly would like a low key event, they have declined any visit from
family and friends, reminded everyone that no floral arrangement and
offerings would be necessarily, and were grateful for condolences from
colleagues and friends.
Lam Lan Tung's friends Johnnie To Kei Fung, Sylvia Chang (Cheung
Ngai Ga) and others formed a memorial committee and will host a memorial
for Lam Lan Tung on the 26th at 3PM at Central. The memorial also would
decline any floral arrangement. Friends would only need to dress in
bright and light clothing. Because Director Lam loved film, cigar and
red wine, the memorial would like everyone to leave their sorrow behind
and remember him with a drink.
