Despite his father’s good intentions to give his son the opportunities he never had, Dicky, with his dirty and tattered clothes and none of the “cool” toys stands out from his schoolmates like a sore thumb. Ti can’t afford to buy Dicky any expensive toys and goes to the best place he knows to get new stuff for Dicky – the junk yard! While out “shopping” for a new toy for his son, Ti finds a mysterious orb and brings it home for Dicky to play with. To his surprise and disbelief, the orb reveals itself to Dicky as a bizarre “pet” with extraordinary powers.

  • “China Factor” in Contemporary Hong Kong Genre Cinema
    Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 46.1 March 2020: 11-37 DOI: 10.6240/concentric.lit.202003_46(1).0002 Re-Negotiations of the “China Factor” in Contemporary Hong Kong Genre Cinema Ting-Ying Lin Department of Information and Communication Tamkang University, Taiwan Abstract Given the long-existing and multifaceted negotiations of the “China factor” in Hong Kong film history, this article centers on the political function of genre films by exploring how contemporary Hong Kong filmmakers utilize filmmaking as a flexible strategy to re-negotiate and reflect on the China factor concerning current post-handover political dynamics. By focusing on several recent Hong Kong genre films as case studies, it examines how the China factor is negotiated in Vulgaria (低俗喜劇 Disu xiju, 2012) and The Midnight After (那夜凌晨，我坐上了旺角開往大埔的紅 VAN Naye lingchen, wo zuoshang le Wangjiao kaiwang Dapu de hong van, 2014), considering the politics of languages alongside the imaginary of the disappearance of Hong Kong’s local cultures in the post-handover era. It also highlights two post-Umbrella- Revolution films, Trivisa ( 樹大招風 Shuda zhaofeng, 2016) and The Mobfathers (選老頂 Xuan lao ding, 2016), to explore how the China factor is negotiated in light of the collective anxieties of Hongkongers regarding the handover and controversies in the current electoral system of Hong Kong. By doing so, this article argues that the re-negotiations of the China factor in contemporary Hong Kong genre cinema have become more and more politically reflexive given the increasingly severe political interference of the Beijing sovereignty that has violated the autonomy of Hong Kong, while forming a discourse of resistance of Hongkongers against possible neo- colonialism from the Chinese authorities in the postcolonial city.

  • “Our Time Will Come” Wins 5 Trophies at Hong Kong Film Awards The
    “Our Time Will Come” Wins 5 Trophies at Hong Kong Film Awards The 37th Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony took place on 15 April at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. The star-studded event this year was broadcast live on ViuTV, which had produced a series of film awards-themed programmes to usher in the big day, including reality shows on the nominees of Best New Director and Best New Performer. Ann Hui’s wartime epic “Our Time Will Come”, based on the heroics of a resistance group fighting Japanese occupation in Hong Kong, was the big winner bagging five awards. Wilson Yip’s action film “Paradox” received three nods while upcoming director Chan Tai Lee’s “Tomorrow Is Another Day” snatched two. “Tomorrow is Another Day” is a social drama that puts autism on the big screen. Veteran actor Louis Koo continued his awards-winning streak by picking up his first Best Actor honour at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Koo also won Best Actor, the first major acting prize in his career, at the Asian Film Awards in March this year. “I have been thinking how we can all make Hong Kong film thrive,” Koo said in a heartfelt speech. “Hongkongers must be united… the industry needs your support.” Reflecting on inspirational moments encountered in the industry over the last 20 years, Koo paid tribute to the Lifetime Achievement Award winner Chor Yuen, “When I was filming with Uncle Chor Yuen years ago on the set of a TVB show, his advice influenced me until today. He said that we should never give up on any scene, and any line of dialogue.

  • Cantopop Songs of All Time!
    THE GREATEST CANTOPOP SONGS OF ALL TIME! Forty years ago, Hong Kong saw the birth of Cantopop, a style of music which would become one of the city’s most iconic cultural offerings. To mark its 40th anniversary, Arthur Tam looks back over the history of the equally loved and derided genre – and explores its evolution and importance through its most beloved songs, one year at a time… 30 timeout.com.hk The early years The Fatal Irony <<啼笑姻緣>> Sandra Lang (仙杜拉) In 1974, during the boom of HK media, 1975 a theme song to a popular drama, << The Fatal Irony <<啼笑姻緣>>, would change everything.

I was very Sam Hui (許冠傑) lucky to have Fatal Irony <<啼笑姻緣>>. It was a The Genius and the Idiot Featuring in the titular movie, which was gift from God. No one had ever done a song like this popularised due to its slapstick humour, before and it became popular because people are good listeners.
