Price:US$12.95
A sequel to _He Is A Woman She Is A Man_, the film picks up immediately after the final scene of the former. Once Lam Chi Wing moves in with Sam Koo Ga Ming, Sam realizes he may have more than his PR department can handle. Things get more interesting when the great Fong Yim Mui returns from a ten year absence and becomes a part of their lives. There's no question that this a film worth watching, but make sure you've seen _He Is A Woman She Is A Man_ first. The sequel doesn't make any attempt to recap the characters. This film wanders a bit at first, while Peter Chan Ho San puts in all the obligatory references to the original, before settling down into its own story and recreating the magic. Once the film gets going, everything falls into place. Peter reestablishes the subtly surreal mood and setting. Acting is first rate, although it takes both Anita's a little while to get going, and Jordan and Theresa are nothing more than comic relief. The only thing lacking is a killer song like 'Jui (Chase)'. As before, knowing the current HK music scene adds to the humor. And a little knowledge of Anita Mui Yim Fong's recent gossip adds to the poignancy of one of her scenes.
