I've seen about a half dozen Mandarin movies. Some are cute, some I really don't like. Humor doesn't always translate well, so about 2/3rds of the way through this movie I was thinking, "THIS is what my daughter Anastasia was crying about? It's just nonsense". Until it wasn't. In the last half hour there is a plot... twist that explains what really happened. Then, I cried. And cried. And cried. Even now, I watch the last 30 minutes of the movie every once in a while.... then I cry. One of the best stories ever written.
If you don't know her, this is still a great story. Having lived in HK for half a year and being a fan of Chinese music, I had heard a bit about her. If you know nothing this is still a great movie and true story.
Of course, there is an undercurrent to the story which a foreigner will not get about her but it is still an incredible movie experience. For example, there is a simple scene where she, now being rich and famous, is interviewed and asked if she will stay in Hong Kong after 1997. She proudly says "Yes, I will stay in Hong Kong". This was the year that Hong Kong was handed back over to China from being a British colony and there was a lot of fear at that time that the mainland government would be heavy handed with locals and take away their western freedoms. This turned out to not be the case but many people left HK at that time and she proudly stayed. This is not explained in the movie, you'd have to know the history of HK. But these few blips would take nothing away from this film if you didn't.
If anything, the true story of her life is even more incredible than this story, a wonderful film.
