(Anthony) Do you think the building is still there?

(Yau) Yes.

(Anthony) Are you sure?

(Yau) | was there last week.

(Anthony) I'm really not used to speaking English. Even in Chinese | am still clumsy.

(Anthony) Her figure is still very fit.

(Yau) | shot her recently.

(Anthony) She has many foreigner boyfriends.

(Yau) The first day we shot this film.

(Anthony) Wow, playing such techniques.

(Yau) He shoots films of this kind very naturally.

(Anthony) It was not Shing Fui On initially.

(Yau) Who then?

(Anthony) It was James initially.

(Yau) This is the supplementary shooting.

(Anthony) Is it? (Yau) Yes.

(Anthony) Oh yes.

(Yau) They said James is not tall enough as you are too tall.

(Anthony) Who?

(Yau) James.

(Anthony) | was rather mighty during that time.

(Yau) Yes, you became shorter now.

(Anthony) Yes, shrank.

(Anthony) You can see he is not the sick Killer; he was just forced to react.

(Anthony) It is originally a pornographic and violent script, but we turned it into

an anti—society movie. - (Yau) An anarchy movie.

(Yau) Actually the whore belongs to the oppressed people.

(Anthony) Yes, we made her as an absolutely, a person of, how

to say in English?

(Yau) Proletarian revolution.

(Anthony) Wow, | had very thick hair that time.

(Anthony) Now my head is bald.

(Yau) You were very mighty.

(Yau) It seemed you don't have to think when you shot.

(Anthony) What do you mean by don't have to think?

NCT)R ] Ne[e]a Rl o E\ R (o) think how to shoot it.

(Yau) You did it by your instinct.

(Anthony) Yes, | am unmatched.

(Anthony) You see the hair.

(Anthony) Why should | act this role as I'm so handsome?

(Yau) Because you're an actor.

(Anthony) The hands are mine.

(Yau) Yes, because you didn't want to be substituted by others.

(Anthony) But the one who Kkilled the frogs was a stand in.

(Yau) Yes, because you couldn't do that.

(Anthony) | follow Ahimsa.

(Yau) It's rather forceful. | haven't seen it in awhile.

(Anthony) This isn't forceful enough. | was afraid of knocking him to death.

(Yau) It would be enough with the sound effects.

(Anthony) It doesn't look like enough. Not forceful enough.

(Anthony) Oh, there should be another shot.

(Yau) It was cut.

(Anthony) He should stand on the table and...

(Yau) Yes, but it was cut.

(Anthony) Yes, | remember that.

(Yau) You were rather exaggerated in shooting.

(Anthony) | work according to a certain person. | would be exaggerated if they are.

(Anthony) This part is disgusting.

(Yau) This part is also cut in Hong Kong.

(Anthony) Yes, it showed how to cut the tongue.

(Yau) Yes, the shot of the head is cut.

(Anthony) Yes, | remember the lemon tea that was substituted for urine.

(Anthony) Why we shot like that was because of The Untold Story, it was also like that.

(Yau) The hand washing shot.

(Anthony) It also used lemon tea.

(Anthony) It's more exciting in Cantonese.

(Yau) People said that our film The Untold Story frightened the children.

(Anthony) The children didn't QIR N1 c=1o B

(Anthony) Do you remember? | thought the children were not frightened so |

scared them to cry?

(Anthony) They hit me with a newspaper after crying.

(Anthony) They didn't need me to scare them.

(Yau) Yes, and we usually released them before or after the night snack.

(Yau) We only reserved your part to the late night.

(Anthony) Because the children had to go to school in the morning.

(Yau) You said, "Killing people, so what?"

(Anthony) | thought out this one spontaneously.

(Anthony) There was a lot of black humor.

(Yau) Is this shot that long?

(Anthony) It is rather long when we view it now.

(Yau) This name is Wong Jing, Anthony Wong.

(Yau) We didn't do bilingual in these days.

(Anthony) We didn't think that foreigners would watch our movie.

(Yau) Yes, but it is different nowadays.

(Anthony) This is Africa.

(Anthony) The first time | flew to South Africa.

(Yau) Johannesburg, this is the last shot in Johannesburg.

(Anthony) Why did you pan so slowly here?

(Yau) This was not panned by me, IRVEEN S [elei[s|IN(VE

(Anthony) This hand is not mine.

(Yau) This one is a substitute.

(Yau) This is the one for professional technigque substitution in Hong Kong.

(Yau) When | went to the market during childhood, | saw people

Killing frogs like that.

(Anthony) Not everybody can do this.

(Yau) No, thisis a very professional skill.

(Anthony) Very cruel.

(Yau) But you can see a lot of these cruel actions in Chinese markets.

(Anthony) Do you know his name?

(Yau) | forgot...

(Anthony) | saw the name Cheung Lo just now.

(Yau) Oh yes, he is Cheung Lo.

(Anthony) There is also a former singer named Cheung Lo.

(Yau) Yes. The mother of a singer.

(Yau) This is Law Mang.

(Anthony) A very powerful fighter.

(Yau) He is the godson of Director Cheung Chit.

(Anthony) But now | hit people, not him.

(Yau) Yes, he was frightened.

(Yau) Others won't understand us, stop talking like this.

(Anthony) This restaurant is in Hong Kong.

(Yau) Yes, in Waterloo Road, Hong Kong, Tsui King Lau.

(Anthony) This kind of restaurant disappeared already.

(Yau) But this one is still there.

(Yau) This part of shooting mostly described the personality of Kai.

(Yau) When she can ask either one of you to move, she chose you.

(Anthony) So | thought she humiliated me.

(Yau) This is Angel, | forgot her Chinese name.

(Anthony) Wong Chi Ling.

(Yau) Yes, Wong Chi Ling. My memory is getting weaker.

(Anthony) Getting old.

(Anthony) What do you say to this movie, Director?

(Yau) Ah, the father of the photographer's assistant in South Africa is a

Spanish ambassador.

(Yau) So he left the movie when we were done in South Africa.

But he died in a car accident two years later.

(Anthony) You mean the assistant.

(Yau) Yes, Buster's assistant. Buster was

also the photographer on "The Gods Must Be Crazy".

(Yau) This is the shot we did after staying two hours in the hotel after

arriving in South Africa.

(Anthony) Before we shot this | saw people holding machine guns watching outside.

(Anthony) There really were robberies in meat stores.

(Anthony) But | realized the guns were rusty, | felt the guns had

Killed people before.

(Anthony) Those were the guns that made you frightened with just a glance at them.

(Anthony) These were not the same guns held by the Airport Security Unit.

(Anthony) You will be frightened by the guns held by the black people, and they

were swaying their guns while chatting.

(Yau) By the time we flew to South Africa, it was in the Mandela administration.

(Yau) When | think back, Cheung Lu is the one who works hard.

(Anthony) During that time, many were very hardworking.

(Yau) The difficulty is that it is not easy to find one who agrees to be

nude and acts well.

(Yau) It's not because of human flesh roasted pork bun (Untold Story) that we

designed Kai as a cook.

(Anthony) It's because many immigrants are cooks.

(Yau) Yes, most of them o] IR N[ =1 gl EF

(Anthony) This pig smelt very bad. The flies flied over it.

(Yau) Yes, | remember it was very heavy.

(Anthony) Fortunately | could carry it. But | couldn't carry it now.

(Yau) The way | cut the shot like that is because you couldn't stand straight after

putting the pig on you, so | have to cut like that.

(Anthony) Is that so?

(Yau) Yes, the pig was very heavy.

(Anthony) Yes, the pig was heavy, and my back still hurts.

(Anthony) | have a long—term ache in my back.

(Anthony) She had nothing to vomit when you shot her.

(Yau) She was nauseous; but nausea may not get someone to vomit.

(Anthony) This is like a ghost movie.

(Yau) This is her memory.

(Yau) The audience may not realize who she is, so this is to show them.

(Anthony) An introduction.

(Yau) Actually the audience knows her, but we want to make it clearer.

(Anthony) This is very Chinese style.

(Anthony) Be careful when you eat in Chinatown.

(Yau) In fact, in the lower class and the weak society groups, people have

many ways of revenge.

(Anthony) But their revenge attack is helpless, like spitting.

(Yau) And also, nobody sees it.

(Anthony) They have no knowledge and no money, and no way out.

(Anthony) | felt the dialogue was very funny.

(Yau) The guy over there is the only South African we used who also worked night duty.

He has other things to shoot after this.

(Yau) This guy here is the vice director from Hong Kong.

(Anthony) This is my jacket.

(Anthony) The leatherjacket is mine. | let him borrow it.

(Yau) Is it? Oh, could be.

(Anthony) This girl is pretty.

(Anthony) Why didn't we feel she was pretty then.

(Yau) We were concentrating on work.

(Yau) The original idea was that you were going to touch her breasts,

but the girl refused.

(Anthony) | forgot about that.

(Anthony) This shot indicated the fetish. Most movies from Hong Kong handle fetishes

with these kinds of shots.

(Anthony) There were people that asked if there was another way to present it, so the

disgusting last part was introduced.

(Yau) In fact, Kai's behavior was very instinctive.

(Anthony) Very primitive and simple.

(Yau) Yes, primitive, simple and instinctive.

(Yau) The middle class buy toys from sex shops.

(Anthony) Even if you had the money to find whores, but there's not a whore

willing to serve you.

(Anthony) This shot was very exaggerated.

(Yau) This shot was done very quickly.

(Yau) But he acted very seriously, he acted as if he was very satisfied.

(Yau) Now we think it was too long when we view it, it should have been shorter.

(Anthony) This is for the porn aspect, thinking that our boss may ask us for

more pornographic shots.

(Yau) This shot could have been done in another place, why did we do

it in South Africa?

(Anthony) Maybe as time allowed, we did it as well.

(Yau) Could be. This was the last night, | suppose.

(Anthony) This was not the last night.

(Anthony)There was an incident on the last night, and we carried a woman and

left the next morning.

(Anthony) It was an attempted rape case on the last night; | was the hero

who saved the beauty.

(Yau) Right. But this is nothing to do with the movie.

(Anthony) No, this is only for gossiping.

(Anthony) This shot coming up was very frightening, to be followed by a leopard,

how bad can you scare us?

(Yau) Sorry, but after it was fed, there was nothing to be frightened of.

(Anthony) But we didn't know that.

(Anthony) Even if you see a dog, if there is any motion making it think you are

attacking, it will bite you, let alone a leopard.

(Anthony) Though he had a gun in hand, but what's the point if he shoots the leopard

after he gives you one or two bites.

(Yau) Should be one more session before that, | forgot.

(Yau) How long ago did you watch this?

(Anthony) Long time ago.

(Yau) Me too.

(Yau) That day we were shooting in two groups.

(Anthony) | don't understand why Europeans like these kinds of films?

(Yau) | don't understand either, but it's good to have somebody like your movie.

(Anthony) | only want to understand why.

(Yau) When | viewed it last time, though it was exaggerated, | felt the

content was very true.

(Anthony) This dialogue was created by me.

(Yau) Were you frightened that day?

(Anthony) Yes, | was. This part was shot separately, there was no fright here.

(Anthony) This part frightened me very much. Can you see it?

(Yau) This is no more film shooting, it is real.

(Anthony) Watch how fast | ran, it really followed us.

(Anthony) We took many takes here.

(Yau) Yes, many shots. We tempted it with a

chicken. It refused to work

when it was full.

(Yau) In fact, Ah Kai is like a child.

(Anthony) Yes, a very simple person.

(Anthony) This is very different from Untold Story.

(Yau) Very different.

(Anthony) Than man lived in a violent world, but this one is different.

(Yau) Ah Kai is far simpler than that man.

(Anthony) He behaved with instinct.

(Yau) Right, correct.

(Yau) Though fearful, Ah Kai is true.

(Anthony) If he does not live in such an environment, he will be different.

He is not mentally ill.

(Yau) This is actually a vast farm.

(Yau) Have you recorded the long aF-T A leTel (-1t aIE R 1104 [=¥4

(Anthony) No. | recorded it A= g il g l=]

(Anthony) Let me see, had | done the Taxi Hunter by that time?

(Yau) Yes, you had, the Roasted Pork Bun and Taxi Hunter were of the same year.

(Anthony) Had | done the New Tenant?

(Yau) Yes you had.

(Anthony) Then it was recorded.

(Yau) This is the 1996 film; New Tenant was in 1994.

(Anthony) This shot | had been waiting very long.

(Yau) Yes.

(Anthony) They really kill chickens.

(Yau) You waited all morning, we started setting up after you got there.

(Anthony) Then | went outside to buy hats.

(Yau) Right.

(Anthony) | also bought the spear and shield.

(Yau) Yes.

(Yau) It was the afternoon when the camera started.

(Anthony) This is fake.

(Anthony) We just used the cotton to splash on blood plasma for shooting.

(Anthony) Thus saving the cosmetics.

(Anthony) | remember that was a very hot day, and there was a bad smell on the

blood plasma and cottons.

(Yau) Yes, you can see from the hot sun.

(Yau) Why is it we find the shots are so long this time?

(Anthony) Yes, because the pace is sped up nowadays, but the pace was slower then.

(Anthony) It purposely prolongs the shots to make the audience clear about the

picture. It was more descriptive.

(Yau) The shots were very long.

(Anthony) Yes, we sometimes thought it was too copious.

(Yau) Not only have you acted differently. | also shoot differently.

(Yau) Now, this shot will not happen nowadays.

(Anthony) No. No wonder you spent the whole morning for the scene.

(Anthony) This is disgusting.

(Anthony) Props should be used in shooting films.

(Yau) It's too excessive.

(Anthony) Excessive is the characteristic of Hong Kong movies.

LR (ViR R (SR (o)) of the line of Hong Kong movies.

(Anthony) No boundary on the ideology.

(Anthony) | talked to them about the fact that the rape scene was not strong enough

as in the Roast Pork Bun movie, but they

said it was strong enough.

(Yau) The smoke was beautiful. This is made by God not us.

(Anthony) Really?

(Yau) If it is not blown by the wind, you won't see this effect.

(Yau) This tribe leader like figure is one of their actors.

(Anthony) Ah Kai has some wit.

(Yau) He was a child.

(Yau) Here the sun is almost set.

(Yau) Your bulky body at the time looked good.

(Anthony) Good for acting these roles.

(Yau) This is the tourist area.

(Anthony) | haven't seen so many elephants, lions and giraffes in my life.

(Yau) But you saw them all in one day. (ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Yau) You had made many shots in one day.

(Anthony) That day | shot the truck, the leopard,

(Yau) The truck, the leopard and the animal.

(Anthony) Yes, together with the rape.

(Yau) Yes, together with the rape.

(Anthony) We went there for 7 days.

(Yau) Yes. It was about one week.

(Anthony) | don't think we will have a chance like that again.

(Anthony) This girl is a university student.

(Yau) She is? (Anthony) Yes.

(Yau) No, this is a tribal native.

(Anthony) No, a university student. You told me that.

T RE TR a IR (VTN

(Anthony) She worried about her lower body being seen, you told her not to worry, but

she couldn't have trousers on.

(Yau) Is it? That complicated?

(Anthony) Yes, very complicated.

(Yau) Was it seen?

(Anthony) No, it wasn't.

(Anthony) It's just that she was worried about that.

(Yau) Were her trousers too big?

(Anthony) No, it was actually a problem with the cloth she was wearing.

(Yau) This shot made me think of the movie Quest for Fire , this is the

aborigine's behavior.

(Anthony) This one was sprayed by you.

(Yau) Yes, | wouldn't remember if you didn't mention it.

(Anthony) This is the shot of getting up.

(Anthony) This shot was not that wide initially, it should be closer.

(Anthony) | was rather fat at that time.

(Yau) You mean yourself?

(ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Yau) You were bulky.

(Anthony) Like Elvis Presley.

(Yau) This is the first day shooting the restaurant.

(Yau) Seems like the first shot in the restaurant. | remember these.

(Yau) Ah, no, not the first day.

(Anthony) There is nothing special on this part.

(Yau) This doctor was very special.

(Anthony) He looked like one of the Shaw actors.

(Yau) Maybe he was. He was of that age.

(Anthony) He was using a non—Cantonese accent.

(Anthony) This scene really gave the feeling of that era.

(Yau) Yes, this is the job of the Art Group.

(Anthony) They had done a very good job.

(Yau) This is actually a vacant house, the Tsui King Lau.

(Anthony) They decorated it to look like the sixties to seventies.

(Yau) This is the Taiwanese woman Siu To. She spoke all the foul language she ever

spoke in her life in this movie.

(Anthony) She felt embarrassed afterward.

(Yau) But she wasn't embarrassed =NV R U=l g [e]V[#

(Anthony) Got used to it.

(Yau) Yes, | didn't even tell her to add more. She knew to do that.

(Anthony) This is the puppet style "Charlie motion", this was funny.

(Yau) Made famous by the Russian Director Meyerhold.

(Yau) That was a very good scene.

(Yau) This was Hong Kong.

(Anthony) He looked like the actor in Bruce Lee's movie.

(Yau) Yes, he did, he's the senior actor.

(Anthony) Why didn't he take two more for covering the eyes?

(Yau) This is a ten year old movie.

(ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Yau) Why was there color flashing?

(Anthony) You mean my face?

(Yau) No, the shot.

(Anthony) Can the color of the movie be readjusted?

(Yau) Yes, it can.

(Yau) The old Shaw Brothers movies were readjusted.

(Anthony) Yes, readjust the light, color and sound effect.

(Yau) | felt the sound effect of this movie is very good.

(Anthony) This is really a classic violent movie.

(Yau) This part is exaggerated.

(Anthony) | don't think there is much creative motion here, the same old

pattern of pulling...

(Yau) But the feeling was terrifying.

(Anthony) But when there was a lot of humor in it, | didn't feel it was terrifying.

(Anthony) | felt this shot was shot clumsily; the area was a bit compulsive.

(Anthony) Funny dialogue.

(Anthony) Wow, the poor cover—up, see the back?

(Yau) We'll erase it.

(Yau) | wonder why there was a restaurant letting us shoot like this.

(Anthony) Maybe they didn't know what we were shooting.

(Yau) This part was cut, not sure whether it'll be shown later on.

(Anthony) This part, | was arguing with you that it was impossible...

(Yau) | then demonstrated to you how...

(Anthony) It looked OK afterward.

(Yau) | demonstrated to you right away.

(Yau) It was my head when | demonstrated to you.

(Yau) It was because | had tried that situation before.

(Anthony) Really get your head clipped?

(Yau) No, tried to get clipped by the two doors.

(Anthony) This part was cut too.

(Anthony) | may not be able to shoot a movie like this now.

(Yau) You may not want to do one.

(Anthony) Even if | want to, | may not be able to as | don't know how to

act like this anymore.

(Yau) Can you think out how you acted that day? Can you?

(Anthony) No, I'm not sure...

(Anthony) | really didn't know how | acted on that day.

(Anthony) This is not the kind of movie | like to act in.

| don't know why so many people like this kind of movie.

(Yau) This part was also cut.

(Anthony) Should be.

(Yau) Yes, cut.

(Anthony) The shot flashes.

(Yau) This part was cut again.

(Anthony) See how big the belly was.

(Yau) Do you mean your belly?

(Anthony) Yes, my belly.

(Anthony) This is real.

(Yau) Yes, a real person.

(Anthony) Right, real person.

(Anthony) Another scene of cutting people.

(Anthony) | felt these shots were copying the movie Roasted Pork Bun.

(Anthony) Purposely have a few more.

(Yau) Most of the movies shoot like that.

(Yau) But they will be cut.

(Anthony) | meant adding more deaths.

(Yau) You mean innocents dying?

(Anthony) Yes, getting some innocent people killed.

(Anthony) Disgusting, fortunately | haven't eaten yet.

(Yau) This one was cut.

(Anthony) It seemed there was a shot of the Meat grinder in here.

(Yau) No, that belonged to the movie Roasted Pork Bun.

(Anthony) Roasted Pork Bun?

(Yau) Is the welcome welcome made by us, was it originally there?

(Anthony) I'm not sure, maybe it was there originally.

(Anthony) It's very disgusting to a human being seeing them eating human meat.

(Anthony) But when a cow sees them eating cow meat it is not disgusting.

(Yau) They are the same. Like the lion herd.

(Yau) For the things you thought out spontaneously they will ask you why.

(Anthony) Ask what?

(Yau) Ask why you thought that way.

(Anthony) Spontaneous is spontaneous.

(Anthony) People are always spontaneous.

(Yau) Yes, | think so.

(Yau) The force used was considerable in this shot.

(Anthony) Yes, | was afraid of too much force.

(Anthony) A lot of foul language.

(Anthony) This movie cannot be shot again.

(Anthony) What category was this one during that time?

(Yau) Cat 3.

(Anthony) | think this one can be developed to a Cat 4 or 5.

(Yau) No, they will cut them if they exceed Cat 3.

(Yau) The way people shoot nowadays is so different from the old times.

(Yau) Is it the trend or have people themselves changed?

(Anthony) Because the time is different, and the pace is different, too.

(Yau) This was shot in ten odd days.

(Anthony) Just ten odd days?

(Anthony) | thought it was longer.

(Yau) Yes. Fifteen days.

(Anthony) Don't you feel you can shoot much more?

(Yau) What do you mean much more?

(Anthony) You can shoot more and prepared for being cut.

(Yau) Yes, | do.

(Yau) But this one is about seventeen days, including South Africa.

(Yau) And the cutting nowadays will be bold and resolute.

(Yau) What's the name of this boy, | forgot.

(Anthony) Ah Ting. Somewhat like Shui Ting.

(Yau) Ng Shui Ting.

(Yau) Where is he now?

(Anthony) He is in Malaysia.

(Yau) Angel?

(Anthony) Angel should be in Malaysia.

(Yau) By now, you've already shot the Banana Club.

(Anthony) Really?

(Yau) Yes.

(Anthony) I like the Banana Club.

(Yau) This is the real police station.

(Anthony) But why was the English dubbing so poor?

(Yau) They had the same man to do the dubbing.

(Anthony) The English sounded very bad.

(Yau) Like the Lingua phone sound.

(Yau) Angel dubbed her own voice.

(Anthony) Yes, she did.

(Yau) Ah Ting did not dub his own voice.

(Anthony) Ah Ting did not.

(Yau) Not in Hong Kong yet?

(Anthony) Just about.

(Yau) This is the vice director, the South African vice director, Alex.

(Anthony) This is the house in the park.

(Yau) | forgot.

(Yau) The child acted very well.

(Yau) This is Hong Kong.

(Yau) What is the name of the Peak hospital?

(Anthony) Shot at the Peak hospital?

(Yau) Yes.

(Yau) Because the architecture looked like South Africa's building.

(Anthony) Yes, there were the colonial (U0 Rl

It's good they allowed you to shoot like that.

(Anthony) This shot involved a lot of people.

(Yau) There was a lot of rehearsal.

(Anthony) Should be. But nowadays it's an easy job.

(Yau) Did he look like Clark Gable?

(Yau) Like an old overseas Chinese.

TRV e M= =Io B

(Anthony) This is your masterpiece.

(Anthony) This director went to medical school.

(Yau) This is the wide dissection, one of the anatomy methods.

(Anthony) He had good knowledge of this kind of stuff, so he likes to shoot the

film about cutting people.

(Yau) There were pig organs.

(Anthony) They were disgusting.

(Yau) These were disgusting.

(Anthony) That part was cut.

(Yau) The part where they open the head.

(Anthony) But why it allowed these to be shown on TV dramas, like the

cosmetic surgery.

(Yau) This is allowed nowadays, but the shots are short.

(Yau) This one was quite long.

(Anthony) But this was about scientific study.

It's not easy to make a fake person for shooting in Hong Kong.

(Yau) | forgot how much, but it was rather expensive.

(Anthony) If not, we have to sow cotton to splash on blood plasmas.

(Anthony) See how beautiful the Hong Kong night was.

(Yau) This is the boss's hotel, Ritz Carlton.

(Yau) | like this part most, you don't need any help. You always rely on yourself.

(Anthony) These shots were also fantastic.

(Yau) But we had to cut a lot by ourselves in this shot, not by the Film Censorship

Section. It was us not them.

(Anthony) Shall we put them back?

(Yau) | think it was too much, we better not put them back.

(Yau) The part when the two girls came in was cut.

(Anthony) Because of the length?

(Yau) Yes, the film was too long.

(Anthony) | suggested not to cut it, that part was funny.

(Anthony) This was also created by me.

(Yau) Yes, no whore service in such a big hotel.

(Yau) This nightclub disappeared, turned to a disco.

(Anthony) This double position was not appropriate. |I've said that.

(Yau) The cutting style is different nowadays, computer cutting affects

the whole industry.

(Anthony) Now all films are computer cut.

(Yau) This movie wasn't cut by a computer.

(Yau) The movies now are all budgeted to be cut by a computer.

(Yau) This girl was a tourist.

(Anthony) This one, no, | had seen R R EEN G R

(Yau) She said she was a tourist.

(Anthony) That's what she told you, but she was not.

(Anthony) During the time | shot this movie | didn't feel embarrassed.

(Anthony) But if | shot it now | will be very embarrassed.

(Yau) You felt happy during that time.

(Anthony) Yes, | got used to shooting these kinds of movies.

(Anthony) There were movies like this all the time, | had no other choice.

(Yau) There should be a major part here.

(Anthony) A major part?

(Anthony) Yes, there was a shot of the transfer of the virus.

(Yau) No, the transfer of the virus comes later.

(Anthony) No, there was the transfer of the virus from the mouth.

(Yau) Oh yes, it was just past.

(Anthony) Oh, | missed that part.

(Yau) Ching said to me, Ah Kai won't know the word greedy.

(Yau) Then Catherine said there were many people that know the word greedy.

(Anthony) Well, Ah Kai had been staying in South Africa for that long,

of course he knew.

(Anthony) In fact he was a clever guy, though he received no education.

(Yau) Fortunately Catherine made him understand that.

(Yau) This is Wan Yeung Ming.

(Yau) This is the first time he showed up.

(Anthony) Is this Lee Fai?

(Yau) Was Lee Fai there?

(Anthony) Is this girl Lee Fai?

(Yau) No, this is the student of APA.

(Anthony) This has several shots.

(Yau) This one was introduced by Fat Chung.

(Anthony) | said the foreign girl had several shots.

(Yau) Can't you see that, this one is different from that one?

(Anthony) Oh, no wonder this one looks much prettier.

(Yau) She said herself that a tourist had gone.

(Anthony) Of course not.

(Yau) But she can come back.

(Anthony) | had seen her with lots of makeup on the street.

(Yau) Where was that hospital?

(Yau) This is a company. This is the room of Lau Wai Keung.

(Anthony) Fortunately | canceled the haircut appointment.

(Yau) Where is this person?

(Anthony) Actually many people disappeared.

(Anthony) Many of those that shot Hong Kong produced movies disappeared.

(Anthony) So you can see how the market has shrunk.

(Anthony) If we had any profit to share by selling old films, we could just retire.

(Yau) Foreign countries work like that.

(Anthony) Yes, so many of the I E SR G (CIoR

(Yau) But we are forced to retire.

(Anthony) So it's right for us to receive more.

(Yau) This is Ho Lai Sheung, belongs to your company.

(Anthony) Why my company?

(Yau) Film Power Company.

(Yau) This guy Fat Ming also disappeared for a long time.

(Anthony) Yes. Where are they?

(Yau) Right, where are they?

(Yau) This walkway was not long enough.

(Anthony) So he has to stand and talk for a while.

(Yau) This is an old technique, being in the same place...

(Yau) They just miss each other.

(Anthony) I've talked about this issue.

(Yau) Have you?

(Anthony) Yes, | used this ten years ago.

(Yau) It's not good to be too advanced, because people can't recognize it.

(Anthony) | just talked about this yesterday, if your too advanced,

nobody sees it. (Yau) Correct.

(Anthony) So now | step back 10 years, so people will understand me.

(Yau) That means a 20 year round trip.

(Yau) It's like dancing.

(Anthony) He's dizzy, drunken.

(Anthony) My condition is really poor today.

(Yau) Do you have work today?

(Anthony) Fortunately | don't.

(Anthony) | have to leave tomorrow.

(Anthony) See how fierce he is, knocking on the table.

(Anthony) Should they behave like this?

(Yau) You're a very funny man.

(Yau) That day we got there they said they shot about 10 movies in South Africa.

(Anthony) This one occupied one tenth of that.

(Anthony) Am | that slim?

(Yau) This was filmed in June, we discussed it in April.

(Anthony) We seldom shoot (VISR OV )

(Yau) We can go to China.

(Anthony) Yes, China.

(Yau) Maybe Thailand, many people go to Thailand.

(Anthony) You can see even in Cantonese we talked so little, if it's English, we

have nothing to talk about.

(Yau) Yes. But how can Hollywood talk from the beginning to the end.

(Anthony) They have a lot of things to talk about; they shoot the film in

thirty to forty groups.

(Anthony) Regarding this mouse, |'ve told you it was unnecessary. Is that real?

(Yau) Real one.

(Anthony) That's very cruel.

(Yau) This is Lee Tsz Kwan.

(Anthony) Director?

(Yau) Photographer, oh yes, also the director.

(Yau) This is Miu, Chen Miu Ying, she IS running a business.

(Anthony) Yes, running a cosmetic business, doing well.

(Yau) Yes. She is also a good person.

(Anthony) It's really a pity, actually, we have people who can act very well, but the

market could not absorb them. We have to

choose the young girls.

(Anthony) The market is unhealthy.

(Anthony) My hair was so abundant at that time.

(Yau) That means you had lost a lot of hairs.

(Yau) Fortunately you had abundant hairs originally.

(Anthony) Yes, otherwise, | am bald.

(Anthony) | don't dare to grow my hair long now.

(Yau) You will lose more.

(Anthony) Because the hairs will become heavy?

(Yau) No, but they will be tangled in knots.

(Yau) This house is on Prince Edward Road.

(Anthony) Was the mustache grown by myself or stuck on my face?

(Yau) | forgot, | think it was stuck on the face.

(Anthony) No, it is separated at the center, should be grown.

(Yau) No, you were shooting Young and Dangerous during that time.

(Yau) The role you played had no mustache.

(Anthony) Is it? Oh yes, it was stuck on my

face with one side higher than the other. Very poor technique.

(Anthony) Sometimes even | cannot recognize me when | view the old movies.

(Anthony) | sometimes felt embarrassed when | viewed the old movies.

Though | still feel they are interesting,

(Yau) This one you might not be embarrassed, but people some might be.

(Anthony) When | first went to the HMV and saw the series like Wong Chau Sang Series,

Lau Ching Wan Series, etc.

(Anthony) When | saw other grand movies while mine were only shot in a few days,

| really felt shameful of them.

(Anthony) Sometimes when | viewed the western movies at home | cried.

| asked myself why | couldn't make

movies like that.

(Yau) Did you get the answer?

(Anthony) It was my fate, | was in Hong Kong.

(Anthony) If we put more cost and time into this movie, it can be a classic.

(Anthony) There is Siu Wan.

(Yau) Yes, Siu Wan was there.

(Anthony) She acted very well during this part.

(Anthony) Pat Leung Kam was there.

(Yau) Oh yes. Oh | told a lie.

(Anthony) Why?

(Yau) The other day | told somebody I'd never worked with Pat Leung Kam.

(Anthony) You just forgot, he was not yet popular by then.

(Yau) May be only this one, | haven't worked with him recently.

(Yau) But when | see him there it proved | had worked with him before.

(Anthony) Ah Kwan looked like a drug addict.

(Yau) He always stays in Beijing.

(Anthony) What for?

(Yau) He sometimes directs the TV dramas.

(Anthony) He will be alright if not drunken.

(Yau) Well, there are many people that like drinking.

(Yau) Like any person after drinking.

(Anthony) Yes, the worst is working after getting drunk.

(Anthony) | drink also, but you have to be self—disciplined.

Stop drinking when you have to work.

(Yau) But he didn't drink when he worked with me.

(Anthony) He drank sometimes.

(Anthony) When | shot with him, he continuously drank 4 to 5 bottles of

red wine in one night.

(Yau) Which movie? Recently?

(Anthony) No, when we shot the Wu Tong Shen.

(Yau) Before this one?

(ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Yau) Wu Tong Shen was long ago.

(Anthony) Yes, long ago.

(Anthony) | was just starting to act.

(Yau) No, you first acted long ago; the first movie was Foggy Hong Kong.

(Anthony) Yes, the late Shaw Brothers movie.

(Yau) Siu Wan again.

(Anthony) Yes, the shot was without the people around knowing the situation.

(Yau) Yes, all these were real responses, only the one lying on the floor was an

actor. This is invisible theatre.

(Anthony) You were bold enough to do that.

(Yau) This one too, Ho Lin is the actor, the others were not actors.

(Anthony) This one too.

(Yau) That's what | said; Ho Lin and the one lying down on the floor were actors.

(Yau) Yes, they asked me how to get these clothes.

(Anthony) Of course they were made. Do they

believe there was really Ebola Syndrome in Hong Kong?

(Yau) Hong Kong got protection clothes during SARs period, blue in color.

(Anthony) They were bought afterward. There

was no contingency action at the beginning and believed that nothing happened.

(Yau) Where was this street?

(Anthony) Tsimshatsui.

(Anthony) Shot in the same day with that mouse.

(Yau) | see, how come you remember that?

(Anthony) Yes, it's strange, this is Kimberly Road.

(Yau) Yes, somewhere there.

(Anthony) Around the taxi station, near the Tiger International Boxing Association.

(Yau) Is the Tiger International Boxing Association there?

(Yau) Hong Kong shooting is very honest, you know the street, everything.

(Anthony) Yes, everybody recognizes the street.

(Anthony) Why was this in here?

(Yau) This was designed by you.

(Anthony) Yes, so | said | was doing something excessive.

Why did you listen to me?

(Yau) It must be that | objected to something before, so |

listened to you this time.

(Anthony) When will you have another interesting movie?

(Yau) Next year, maybe, this year is almost over.

(Yau) This is Ono, Wong Pun.

(Yau) Though | said | forgot a lot, but when | view it, a lot of things

come to my memory.

(Anthony) Yes. You will also remember something outside the movie.

(Yau) Yes, the things that happened at the same time.

(Anthony) Yes. Like an album.

(Yau) Yes, they say diary now. No, no more diary, they named them blogs.

(Anthony) Yes, | am going to write a blog for myself.

(Yau) Are you? Do it as soon as possible.

(Anthony) Can | put the movie in?

(Yau) There are copyrights, you have to ask.

(Anthony) But where can you ask in Hong Kong.

Some of the companies have disappeared.

(Yau) This was casual, just put it in a box.

(Anthony) Maybe the SARs case was treated like that.

(Yau) Yes, when you say how it can be treated like that when watching a movie,

that might be the real case.

(Anthony) Yes, that maybe what really happened.

(Yau) Does Ah Miu make movies any more?

(Anthony) But | think when there is a good movie; she may work, when there is

a good role for her.

(Anthony) What's the point of getting her to act this role?

(Yau) You are right.

(Yau) This is the virus hero, the future earth.

(Yau) Did this girl act before?

(Anthony) Yes, she did.

(Yau) She gets killed by you in this.

(Yau) He's going to jump out to the street of Observatory Road.

(Yau) You had more body language previously, and less body language now.

(ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Yau) You agree with that?

(Anthony) Yes, this difference is obvious.

(Anthony) | changed ever since shooting Beast Cops.

(Yau) No, since you attended a course in London.

(Anthony) No, | learned to act like a clown in that course.

(Anthony) That role needed more body language, but | couldn't do that because |

was sick. But when | was back...

(Yau) When shooting Ordinary Heroes...

(Anthony) No, not Ordinary Heroes, it was Beast cops.

(Anthony) Then | became mature when shooting Infernal Affairs.

(Anthony) So | said | won't be able to act like that now, won't be able to get

that spontaneous mood.

(Anthony) Actually | wasn't satisfied when | viewed the shots during that time.

(Anthony) When | acted, | wasn't following my creative direction.

(Anthony) This one is certainly not me. My back would be hurt if | fell like that.

(Yau) Certainly not you.

(Anthony) My lower back was very weak during that time.

(Yau) You couldn't do that even when you were twenty.

(Yau) This was shot after we landed from South Africa.

(Anthony) The second we got off the plane.

(Anthony) | remembered | was very sleepy, and | had to hold a child in my arm.

(Anthony) Spitting made my throat dry.

(Yau) This one gave you water to drink.

(ANg1 [T\ R (T

(Anthony) The poor child was pulled by me all along.

(Yau) She was a docile child.

(Anthony) | was so forceful at that time, can hold the girl with one hand,

| can't do that now.

(Yau) The spontaneous script again.

(Anthony) You need to have them when shooting the Hong Kong produced movies,

because the plot was inflexible.

(Yau) | heard people commented that the Hollywood movies are lacking

spontaneous scripts.

(Anthony) Yes, if they want to change a dialogue they have to make a phone call

to make the adjustment.

(Anthony) This is impossible. You can tell

me what my role is, but the role is vivid, he is growing.

The definition of spontaneous is that you get that feeling by the time you

perform that action.

(Anthony) | did not mean to change the approach and development of the story.

(Yau) He is here talking about the theme of the main idea.

(Yau) We turn round and round in the same corner.

(Anthony) But it seemed you were shooting in a vast place.

(Anthony) You were just turning from the left to right.

(Yau) That's right.

(Yau) People were made irritatingly hot by these clothes.

(Yau) Where is Yeung Ming now?

(Anthony) In China, he is running a restaurant.

(Yau) This is funny, not Debora.

(Anthony) Spontaneous script again.

(Anthony) Another piece of cotton.

(Yau) No, this one was a pork skin.

(Anthony) Pork skin?

(Yau) Yes.

(Anthony) Cotton again.

(Yau) Why did you act like that, it's funny.

(Yau) | like this one.

(Anthony) This is the substitute.

(Anthony) You can see Hong Kong actors act seriously.

(Yau) This one is not you.

(Anthony) Yes, it's me. This one of course not, the man on fire was not me.

(Yau) This shot was taken by 4 cameras.

(Anthony) You can see how we burn it later on.

(Anthony) Here, two rods in the front, another two rods at the back, had

them burning and rolling.

(Yau) This shooting was chaotic.

(Anthony) Would you dare to shoot like this again?

(Yau) I'll do it again.

(Anthony) Aren't you afraid of being arrested?

(Yau) | think a man on fire knocked down by a car was the first action shot at all

times and in all lands.

(Yau) | can't think of another movie like this.

(Anthony) This is excessive.

(Anthony) We really were excessive.

(Yau) Do you want to shoot another movie and have your Sir Wong's

excessiveness in it?

(Yau) They asked whether the little girl eating at the end indicated a sequel.

(Anthony) Why should eating indicate a sequel?

(Yau) Anyway, our notion was not an indication of sequel.

(Anthony) Unless it is a good box office movie.

(Anthony) Even the dog eating can indicate a sequel.

(Yau) When a problem is resolved, there would be more problems.

(Yau) Like America attacking Iragq brought a lot of other problems.

(Anthony) This is nothing to do with the movie.

(Yau) No, nothing to do with the movie.

(Anthony) There are ten some seconds left behind.

(Yau) Well, we have a lot to say when it finished.

(Yau) Ah, this one is the theme.

(Anthony) Bully me.
