Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ③ ‘Kowloon Walled City: The Untold Stories’ — The Kowloon Walled City Park Set That Revives Memories of Hong Kong Cinema

Erased in 1993, the Kowloon Walled City — left behind as “Kowloon Walled City Park” — was a bleak illegal residential zone where no sliver of sunlight ever reached.
When director Jingle Bao-rui’s 〈Kowloon Walled City: The Untold Stories〉 (hereinafter 〈Kowloon Walled City〉, 2024) hit theaters in Hong Kong in 2024, it set a record for the biggest box-office success in Hong Kong history.

Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ② “Comedy King,” Stephen Chow’s Film Where You Never Get Tired of Just Staring at the Sea All Day at Sek O Beach

Among Hong Kong films, it seems there is none that so deeply absorbs the mood of a place as much as Comedy King. With the exception of the film sets and a nightclub or two, it was shot almost entirely at Sek O Beach, located at the far southeastern tip of Hong Kong Island.

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] Tony Leung Sometimes Wants to Hold an Ashtray.

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] Tony Leung Sometimes Wants to Hold an Ashtray.

I get fascinated by objects in movies. I ponder deeply about why the director, cinematographer, art director, or even the actors placed that object in front of the camera. 'Joo Seong-cheol's Locker' is a record of the objects in movies that have lightly stepped on my eyes.
I sometimes hold an ashtray too. In the second meeting after director Hou Hsiao-hsien and actor Tony Leung's 〈Days of Being Wild〉 (1989), there is a scene in 〈In the Mood for Love〉 (1998) where Tony Leung suddenly acts out in a fit of rage.

Originally, the protagonist of 'Swan Lake' was a woman, a preview review of the 5-star action 'Ballerina'

Originally, the protagonist of 'Swan Lake' was a woman, a preview review of the 5-star action 'Ballerina'

Honestly, I was anxious. It was only natural that a movie scheduled for release in 2024 would be delayed by a whole year. The internal screening evaluation of the first cut was disastrous, and they had to reshoot after completely rewriting the existing script.
