Golden Girls
Director: Joe Ma
Year: 1995
Rating: 7.5
A warm, romantic,
funny look at HK film making back in the 60’s. It stars Lau Ching-Wan as
a scriptwriter and Anita Yuen as an aspiring actress. There are the
ups and downs that one expects in a somewhat soap opera type film that covers
a number of years of their lives. Both actors give excellent, very charming
performances and you know that they are meant for one another right from
the start. But love is never an easy road or it would be a very short movie!
Really enjoyed the whole atmosphere that this film creates. Ada Choi as the
sexy rival for LCW is also terrific and perfectly captures the look and style
of 1960's glamor.
