a long time ago i mentioned my acting debut. there were problems with the production of the film, and things were complicated further by the death of one of the actors (a piece of the set collapsed under him while filming at the Beijing Film College), and i pretty much figured the whole project had been scrapped. well, while looking for some new dvds this afternoon, i noticed one that had a familiar face on the cover. it took me a few moments to place it, but, it suddenly dawned on me: "isn't that... the guy i was in that movie with?" i grabbed it, took it home, and sure enough.
the bad news is that they decided not to use the sequence where i actually say a line. bastards. the good news is that... i'm in there! and i look cool. Warriors of Virtue II: Return to Tao. i'm a prisoner, i'm wearing a cloak with a big hood. i have chin hair. what talent! what natural ability! four stars for me!

Warriors of Virtue (the first one) was on TV this weekend so i decided to watch it. oh man, it took a real concerted effort to watch for more than 20 minutes. so bad...emile - Mon 23 May 2005 15:56:37
