She was completely devastated when she left this world. By the way, have your watched the Cable TV programme about an amah giving her entire savings to "her young girl" so that the girl could go to college in the US? The amah is now close 90 and Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11695478134918299017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-31302223274266354842011-12-06T23:16:58.849+08:002011-12-06T23:16:58.849+08:00Hi baroness radon --

More than BTW, want to also mention that I would have liked to have seen the scriptwriters get awarded a Golden Horse prize too... Ah well, and maybe they'll get something at the Hong Kong Film Awards next year! :)YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-75612221378924784592011-12-06T05:26:57.546+08:002011-12-06T05:26:57.546+08:00I am eager to see it!I am eager to see it!baroness radonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14593108634484542286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-67913236024513981132011-12-05T22:18:33.244+08:002011-12-05T22:18:33.244+08:00Hi "A hero never dies" --

And if you're the kind of viewer who's prone to tears... get your tissues ready when you sit down to watch "A Simple Life"! :b<br /><br />Hi ewaffle --<br /><br />I normally suggest that people keep their expectations low going into the film -- but it's going to be hard to keep expectations YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-16066988461567469892011-12-05T08:21:23.061+08:002011-12-05T08:21:23.061+08:00Quite a review--really looking forward to seeing &...Quite a review--really looking forward to seeing "A Simple Life". The politics of film awards (in this case including the politics of the Straits of Taiwan) must by how "A Simple Life" could win best director, best actor and best actress and not get best film.ewafflehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03339565669634286677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-35576629091820586872011-12-05T00:10:42.769+08:002011-12-05T00:10:42.769+08:00Wonderful review YTSL, I can't wait to see thi...Wonderful review YTSL, I can't wait to see this film and have no doubt I too will be in tears throughout.A hero never dieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13075070081480449104noreply@blogger.com
