When people have issues with tone and structure in an Asian movie, I'm reminded of Wai Ka-fai breaking down how his approach to storytelling changed once he converted to Christianity and adopted a "Western" worldview.

Another amazing Johnnie To interview dropped, this time from the BBC. Exceptionally frank and outspoken as usual, going into detail his own creative block, the state of the industry, and the political situation in Hong Kong. Thread of highlights (when I get to it) 🧵

Johnnie To making a wish at his 70th birthday party last night. From left to right I spy directors Jonathan Li, Soi Cheang, and Wai Ka-fai, Louis Koo, Milkyway Image CEO Elaine Chu, and Wong Bo-lin (Mrs. To). I think it's screenwriter Yau Nai-hoi hiding behind Koo.

I subbed the trailer for Tsui Hark's upcoming New Year wuxia blockbuster The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Great Hero. It was also meant to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the birth of Jin Yong/Louis Cha, who once said he never wanted Tsui touching his work ever again.
