Viewing Notes

Really happy to own this. So enjoyable. Can understand why this was a big hit in HK at the time. The Moon Lee interview is a nice extra borrowed from some other release bc it’s 20+ years old now. Initially I thought it was recent and was like “damn girl you still got it go make more movies!” Then she references an event in 2002 she will attending. Ope!

It was fascinating to hear her discuss how at Golden Harvest they just wanted her to be a cute girl in supporting roles. It wasn’t until she left them that she could pursue her desire to make action movies. I’d like to see the entire interview bc this was clearly edited to only show her talking about Mr. Vampire.
