Cows On the Couch

Crossing Hennessy has Jackie Cheung in the movie – and I’ve had it for a long, long time now – but was just waiting for the Cantonese version to come out on DVD.  The actress in this show is Tang Wei famed for that Tony Leung movie – Lust & Caution some few years ago – that created some controversy with her role as a spy and some explicit show of the skin and body.  You cannot deny that Tang Wei’s acting was pretty good.

Anyhow, Crossing Hennessy was a confusing movie to me – even though it was supposed to be a light hearted movie about Jacky Cheung who is the 41 yrs old son of an electrical appliances store owner.  It’s about fixed marriages – it’s about tradition and a little outta tradition since his mother got married like at 60 something years old which we don’t really see often in real life in Asia.

Although both Jacky and Tang Wei was seeing someone else then – when they were matched mate – something or was it fate that happened?  that brought them together and the mysterious “ah seng” – well – i still don’t really know whether he was for real after the end of the movie.  Did i enjoy it?  yup ! for sure – Maggie Cheung is also in it – so have fun watching it.   Here’s a preview of the show.
