A Guilty Conscience

A Guilty Conscience    [trailer]

After his negligence causes an innocent woman to go to jail, a lawyer and his colleagues work to clear her name.

It feels all very manipulative. First him being an arrogant prick, then letting him play the martyr, ripped apart by guilt, trying to redeem himself.

As for the story, only two years later, during the re-trial, they start to ask the mother questions what happend that night and examine the scene of the "murder". That doesn't make sense.

And as much as I share the sentiment that the rich are able to afford a better defense, the whole trial mainly feels like cheap populism, with the proceedings at times coming across as childish.

Warriors of Future (明日戰記, Ming yat zin gei, Virtus, 矛盾戰爭) - Movie Review

Warriors of Future (明日戰記, Ming yat zin gei, Virtus, 矛盾戰爭) – Movie Review

TL;DR – A fascinating action story, held back by some frustrating characters.     ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 3.5 out of 5. Post-Credit Scene – There is a mid-credit sceneDisclosure – I paid for the Netflix service that viewed this film. Warriors of Future Review – If there is one thing that will get me immediately interested in a film, it is a story about trying to fight for a future. The world has gone…

[osugna]

A lyrical social drama brings a compassionate look of the fallen souls with dry humour and authentic dialogue. Drifting rides along the recent wave of Hong Kong local films that prompts a bright outlook for the industry.

7.8/10

Hi! I'm not very well-versed in Cantonese so I hope you can help me 🛐 One of the characters I'm writing is a Hong Konger immigrant. I have the surname for her already but I don't know what to name her. Her surname is Tse (謝? did i get the character right? 😅). I looked up name lists and even thought of just borrowing from celebrities. But I'm worried of the first name sounding awkward when combined with my character's surname. If it's okay with you, can you please suggest names that would fit?

Hi! Thanks for the ask, I'm flattered you'd think I can provide any help with something like this! I'm hardly the most qualified person around…

I'm not a native Hong Konger and while I have a Cantonese background, am very much still learning Cantonese myself. So I'm not confident I can help you select a nice sounding name.

Though I can tell you, yes, ‘Tse’ is how the surname 謝 is often spelt for the Cantonese pronunciation. Sometimes, it can also be spelt as ‘Tze’.

And, this site lists some of the more popular characters used for Cantonese girls' names, and gives you the meaning behind the characters too. Perhaps you can select one from the list and put it against 謝 to see how it sounds for you?

Unfortunately, even though the emphasis is supposed to be on ‘Cantonese’, only Mandarin Pinyin and sound clips are available.

For Cantonese pronunciation, you'll have to unfortunately go the long route, and copy and paste the names into sites like mdbg.net,

Bing Translator, or the Pleco dictionary app, to get sound clips. Although for certain characters sound clips may not work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you have an idea of how Jyutping (Cantonese Romanization) works, then perhaps sound clips aren't necessary.

What bit of advice I can perhaps give is with a surname like Tse, because it's a 6th tone character, given names (whether male or female) that go with this surname often have higher 1st tones to 4th tones in them, to give a nicer ‘ring’ to the full name, if you know what I mean?

Entertainer's name examples:

謝霆鋒 (ze6 ting4 fung1) Nicholas Tse Ting-fung

謝安琪 (ze6 on1 kei4) Kay Tse On-kay

謝天華 (ze6 tin1 waa4) Michael Tse Tin-wah

謝雪心 (ze6 syut3 sam1) Susan Tse Suet-sum

謝君豪 (ze6 gwan1 hou4) Tse Kwan-ho

Also, as you may have noticed, real names are usually not spelt the same way as shown in Jyutping Romanization. You won't find a Mr./Ms. Ze, as a name, it's almost always spelt Tse or Tze.

That's because Jyutping is a relatively recent Romanization standard, standardized only in the '90s by Hong Kong scholars, and mainly only to help learners of Cantonese with pronunciation.

Cantonese Romanization was and is still quite a mess with varying methods/standards.

Using the names suggested from that site, I would personally suggest you go for names under the 珊 (saan1), 怡 (*ji4), 儀 (ji4 — simplified: 仪) and 嘉 (gaa1) categories; these character tones will contrast the 謝 (ze6) tone better, I think!

* in Jyutping, the ‘j’ sound is silent or more like a ‘y’ sound, so characters like 怡 and 儀 would conventionally be spelt as ‘Yi’ or ‘Yee’ in a name.

Hope this helps some, and best wishes to your character and writing!

glad that our favourite second-century war criminal is gaining traction because that means i can get more of you to appreciate Secret of the Three Kingdoms's Cao Cao, played by the talented Tse Kwan-ho.

Secrets of the three kingdoms

Year : 2018 | Country : CN | Nb of episodes: 54

My rate: 6/10

Synopsis :

When the twin sons of an emperor and a concubine are separated, one grows up to become emperor and one lives secretly as a commoner.

Twin brothers Liu Ping and Liu Xie (Ma Tian Yu)grow up very differently but end up back together in adulthood with only each other to lean on. Liu Xie is raised by his grandmother, the Empress Dowager Dong, and becomes Emperor Xian while Liu Ping is secretly taken out of the palace and grows up as a commoner with Sima Yi (Elvis Han).

When fighting breaks out among different factions, Emperor Xian loses control of the kingdom to the powerful warlord Cao Cao (Tse Kwan Ho). When Emperor Xian learns about the existence of his twin brother, he summons him to the palace.

Can Liu Ping, with the help of Sima Yi, Empress Fu Shou (Regina Wan) and other Han loyalists, help the emperor save the Eastern Han Dynasty?

“Secret of the Three Kingdoms” is a 2018 Chinese drama series directed by Patrick Yau. It is based on the novel San Guo Ji Mi by Ma Bo Yong.

Main cast :

Ma Tian yu as Liu Xie/Liu Ping

Wan Qian as Fu Shou

Elvis Han as Sima Yi/ Zhong Da

Dong Jie as Tang Ying

Tan Jian Ci as Cao Pi

My thoughts on this drama :

For a historical drama, I believe this is the most serious one I have ever watched. Ma Tian Yu playing two characters (twins) is a big plus, as it added some realism and confusion within the plot. I belive the costumes are also pretty accurate for the era this story is set up in.

It is a long, plot-heavy story so be warned. Romance is not the main part of this show, we are in a political war in this drama, with deep intrigues and dark themes all over.

A Favorite ?

NO
