a go go!

i really love old shaw brothers films, which i usually catch in passing on cable tv. i don’t mind the odd david chiang/ti lung bust up either. weirdly enough, my father thinks they’re old hat and changes the channel, but everything old is new for me anyway.

i only saw the end of hong kong nocturne, but old fashioned songs about hong kong (the place that erases your troubles in the mist?) given a beat twist? and of course the saturated colour and lavish sets…

more pictures here and a little about musicals in hong kong
