This film, bruising yet respectful in its quiet honesty, deals with homophobic and ageism with sensitivity and insights.

even if it would have created a natural segue into their 2019 film, Memories to Choke On, Drinks to Wash Them Down – a bittersweet quartet of stories about Hongkongers, both fictional and real, and the slow burn of nostalgia.

https://www.scmp.com/magazines/post-magazine/food-drink/article/3198459/what-food-tells-you-about-person-words-cant-foodie-film-couple-their-obsession-and-building-movies

The idea for Memories to Choke On, Drinks to Wash Them Down started with yuen yeung – Hong Kong-style milk tea that includes instant coffee.

Kate Reilly and Leung Ming-kai’s taste map of Hong Kong

Agape Garden 膳心小館 (Shek Kip Mei Estate, Sham Shui Po): “They have the best soy-sauce noodles we have ever eaten. The wok hei – that complex aroma that results from wok-frying food – is incredible. Every couple of days I yearn for these noodles.

“We also love that it’s part cha chaan teng, part convenience store, part central location for seasonal treats like mooncakes.”

Sister Yung’s Stone Milled Cheung Fun 濃姐石磨腸粉 (62 Shanghai Street, Jordan): “The greatest cheung fun I have ever had, we are both wild about it, and we really like the couple that runs it. They also stock additional products from other producers, such as excellent milk tea.”

Pak Muslim Curry House (6 Ping Fu Path, Kwai Chung): “It’s excellent food, with incredible depth of flavour. Well-prepared meats are the star, but vegetable dishes are really tasty as well.

“Since working together on Lau Kok-rui’s upcoming film The Sunny Side of the Street, which is partly about Pakistani Hongkongers, Kai and I are more engaged with Pakistani culture here. And lucky us, Pak Muslim Curry House is just a short walk from a lot of the production offices and studios in Kwai Chung and Kwai Hing.”

Movie Review | Tiger Claws (Makin, 1991)

I’d caught a few minutes of this years ago, back when it was seemingly on Canadian cable constantly, and this is the only thing I remembered. The hero, a cop who is searching for a serial killer who kills his victims with the mysterious and deadly style known as Tiger, waltzes into a martial arts tournament and asks the first person he knows if the fight they’re watching is in Tiger style, which the other person immediately tries to shush him for. Having seen the film proper now, I must regretfully report that the scene is less funny than I remembered. One, it isn’t the first guy the hero talks to (he greets a friend who is preparing for a match). Two, Tiger isn’t quite as rare as I’d assumed, as the hero professes some experience in the style. Sadly, reality did not live up to my memories.

The hero is played by Jalal Merhi, who I understand was a jeweler who went into the movie business and became a bit of a mogul in the Canadian low budget action scene. He has a presence that can be best described as Canadian Seagal, in that he has a ponytail but is otherwise substantially more milquetoast, lacking the streetwise swagger of Seagal at his onscreen best and the pungency of Seagal at his offscreen worst. His accent also sounds a lot like Jean-Claude Van Damme’s, so you get a multitude of action hero flavours. All I can say is that his is the only character I’ve ever seen in a movie who has the same first name as me and has it pronounced (by others at least) the same way as me. And in the very last scene, he wears a Hawaiian shirt, so I’m counting this as onscreen representation. (For the record, I neither have a ponytail nor do I know any martial arts.)

As an action star, he gets an A for effort. But he’s joined by Cynthia Rothrock, who is very good at kicking people, and Bolo Yeung, who is in glowering, hulking mode a la Bloodsport, so it evens out. Having watched three Yuen Woo-Ping movies and a much better Rothrock vehicle within the last few days, it would be hard for me to call this a great action movie, but the fights are directed with a bit more style than I expected, savouring the North American martial arts movie vibe you would expect from this kind of thing. There’s also a couple of other cops who try to arrest the hero the moment they get reassigned the case, and a self-promoting martial artist named Bill Pickells played by somebody named Bill Pickels, who wears a Thriller-style jacket in his cheesy ad, and expresses some insecurity about tall houseplants. (One wonders if he had the extra “l” added to his name to distance himself from the obnoxious character he plays.) This is also very obviously shot in Toronto, meaning you get to hang out at Spadina and Dundas in Toronto’s Chinatown. And there’s a dojo with cute tigers on the wall that were supposed to have been painted by Yeung’s character. See, plenty to enjoy here.

Thanks to @thedrillerkiller​ for the recommendation!

Ip Man’s peaceful life in Foshan changes after Gong Yutian seeks an heir for his family in Southern China. Ip Man then meets Gong Er who challenges him for the sake of regaining her family’s honor. After the Second Sino-Japanese War, Ip Man moves to Hong Kong and struggles to provide for his family. In the mean time, Gong Er chooses the path of vengeance after her father was killed by Ma San.

Werner Screenplay: Zou Jingzhi Makeup Artist: Kwan Lee-na Associate Producer: Johnnie Kong Art Direction: William Chang Suk-Ping Art Direction: Alfred Yau Wai-Ming Costume Design: Shandy Lui Fung-Shan Movie Reviews: CinemaSerf: I’m a fan of Wong Kar-Wai’s films but I reckon that I still prefer Wilson Yip’s 2008 version of the Ip Man story. Set amidst the turbulent times in China that saw the end of the rule of Manchu dynasty, the embryonic republic established and then the Japanese invasion, we meet a man (Tony Leung) who lives peacefully in the small town of Foshan until he meets Wing Chun grand master Gong Yutian (Qingxiang Wang) who is looking for a successor. That is the beginning of a journey that will see him become a grand master of the martial art himself, whilst meeting, marrying and surviving! It’s a superb looking film but for me just a little too over-stylised. The combat scenes are creatively choreographed but the use of the slowed-down visual effects didn’t always work. Leung and the director are clearly on the same wavelength, and the story itself is a fascinating look at the rise of one culture through the wreckage of an ancient one. It’s also clear that women too had their place in this society – and it wasn’t always where stereotype might assume. A strong contribution from the adept and nimble Ziyi Zhang (Gong Er) demonstrates that well as battle lines between the old and new, the powerful and the aspirational are drawn and a good old dose of ancient tribal warfare sets up a proud story of heritage, loyalty and skill. Though a little soporifically scored at times, this is an enjoyable mix of history with touch of romance and plenty of action, and is well worth a couple of hours.

📷🍫🎵💎☕️

@basketball-broadway thank you for the ask!

📷 What’s set as your phone’s lockscreen?

🍫 Cheese or chocolate?

Cheese <3 I like both, but I don't have much of a sweet tooth so I'm much more likely to reach for some cheese than chocolate.

🎵 Last song you listened to?

💎 What’s your most prized possession?

I haven't really thought about this...I like having stuff, but I haven't ever thought of anything as being like ah-a, this is the one that shall be held in the highest regard and passed down through the generations?

☕ Coffee or tea?

As a Hongkonger my forebears didn't invent Yuen Yeung for this question to still be a thing.

I kid, but truth is I love them both. Love a good morning cup of coffee, or taking the time to make drip coffee on the weekends, or getting a little iced latte when I go out. Also love a good hot cup of tea on a cold night, iced tea on a hot summer's day when you want something light (and not like American Iced Tea TM, but like brewed tea over ice), HK milk tea or bubble tea or western black teas with a bit of milk when I want something milky. They're all good and there shall be no competition <3
