The upcoming Olympics and more in Hong Kong

I have my doubts that it really is a case

of One World... One Dream --
still, what's for certain is that the Olympics are
looming over us and the hype for it is already in overdrive!

And now we're in August... the month that has long been awaited by many people around the world, but particularly for the Chinese in China, because it's when the 2008 Beijing Olympics will finally get underway. But while I did contribute some photos to bc magazine's 'Olympictorial' -- and for the record, it wasn't just the Hello Kitty pics! ;b -- my written contributions were by and large what can be considered to be Olympic counter-programming:-

i) Ready, Steady, Go -- Around the World in 80 Days -- a feature article on a musical version of Around the World in 80 Days which will be hitting Hong Kong soon;

ii) Cool Movies for a Hot Season -- The HK International Film Festival's Summer IFF;

iii) Lingerie Lives -- Chan Hing Kar (director of La Lingerie) interview;

iv) The Fox and the Child -- review of Luc Jacquet's follow up to The Emperor's Journey;

v) The Way We Are -- review of Ann Hui's latest which, unfortunately, left cinemas before this issue of the magazine actually streeted!; and

vi) This issue's Editor's Diary.
