Maggie Cheung @ Cinema China 2007
Maggie Cheung @ Cinema China 2007

Admin Stoo travelled to Edinburgh March 2007 to the Cinema China film festival, to whom they showed some of the finest films in Mainland Cinema everything from Wong Kar-Wai's "In the Mood for Love" to silent film "The Goddess", what was even more impressive is that Maggie Cheung & Mainland director Xie Fei came to Glasgow to hold Masterclasses. I was lucky enough to get a ticket to the Maggie Cheung masterclass, so behold my crappy/blurry photographs/videos!

Think those were bad, trust me you dont want to see the others! But for better photographs look'em up at thier site; click here

Here's a YouTube video of Maggie Cheung speaking about Police Story and you'll need to put your volume up VERY high because it was very quiet, that and my mobile phone is sh*te at taking videos.

 

Here's a better video though, this was from the next night where Maggie Cheung gave a short introduction on Zhang Yimou's Hero;

  Litte facts I gained from the Masterclass;

  • Cheung thinks some of the comedies HK have nowadays are as bad as the ones from the 80's, but only worse.
  • Is waiting a script for a good comedy, no longer wants to start in arty tragic dramas.
  • Favourite Directors at the moment are; Andrew Lau, Wong Kar-Wai & Johnny To.
