Ming Ming to hist cinemas

"Ming Ming" is the debut big screen production from Hong Kong's promising director Susie Au. Au started her career shooting music videos for many of Hong Kong's pop set, including Faye Wong and Andy Lau. Over the years she has developed her own distinctive style, with strong visual effects and subtly nuanced sentiments. "Ming Ming" was screened last September at the Pusan International Film Festival, and met with rave reviews from the critics.

The film is set in the modern day Hong Kong. Mainland actress Zhou Xun landed the role of the title role Ming Ming, and also doubled as Nana---Ming Ming's love rival. The two girls both fall in love with D, a maverick fighter and irresistible rogue played by Daniel Wu.

"Ming Ming" will be released countrywide on April the 26th.

Master builder comes to Shanghai

From one of China's most noted stage directors, Lin Zhaohua, comes the production of "The Master Builder" which premiered in Beijing last August. And now it's heading for a four week spell at Shanghai's Majestic Theater.

"The Master Builder" is a play written by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen. It was published in 1892 and was first performed in Berlin in 1893. It tells the story of Halvard Solness who is at the pinnacle of his success as the master builder. But one day he suddenly loses his passion for life and fears that "Youth will come knocking at the door" to usurp him from his cherished position. Then the sudden appearance of an enigmatic woman arouses again his desire and his lost faith in life.
