Nobody goes to the movies anymore, at least not on weekdays. It’s been years since I’ve seen a full movie house, much less an SRO crowd. On weekday afternoons in Makati, all my fellow viewers are senior citizens, who get in for free; many of them fall asleep in the first 15 minutes. I’m guessing the cost is an issue — P160 per person, plus popcorn, drinks, gas or transportation; no wonder people prefer to stay home and watch DVDs, whatever their provenance.

Gong Li has been called China’s Greta Garbo, and the similarities are obvious. Like the legendary Swedish actress, she has an almost otherworldly beauty and a remarkable acting range; her movie credits to date continue to explore new ground. Also like Garbo, Gong is an intensely private woman who struggles to balance her desire for privacy with the publicity that her profession and art entail.

                    [Summary] => 

A popstar phenomenon throughout Asia, Taiwan's Jay Chou brings unexpected gravity and depth to his portrayal of Prince Jai in Buena Vista International's "Curse of the Golden Flower," the new epic adventure from director Zhang Yimou ("Hero," "House of Flying Daggers").


The movie attracted a lot of attention not only because it gathered big stars, including premier Chinese actress Gong Li, Hong Kong superstar Chow Yun-fat and Chou, but also because it's the first collaboration between Zhang and Gong after more than 10 years.

She speaks almost impeccable English, albeit with an unmistakable Chinese accent and delivered with meticulous daintiness (as if she’s listening to every word she’s saying), and it amazes her more than anybody else. With her fragile China-doll beauty, she has added a distinct luster to Hollywood’s fabled "red carpet" (stealing the scenae from veterans at the recent Golden Globe Awards).
