Only Fools Fall in Love
This mild film stars Wu Chien-lien & Lau Ching-Wan
and I rented it only to gaze upon her perfect face. I don’t really recall
the plot all that well. Something to do with Lau Ching-Wan having to get
married and so he chooses Wu Chien-lien who he has just met. He is wealthy
and she is a poor ; he is a bit of a bastard and she is a bit of a swindler.
A perfect match !.
Then he has an accident and becomes an imbecile
and of course a swell guy; only then does she really fall in love with
him and so on. Great - how silly is that. It takes place back a hundred
years or so and nothing to get excited about - but WCL does look absolutely
beautiful in this. I was surprised when I came across glowing reviews of
this film in the HK Database - so perhaps I missed something but it didn't
do anything for me.
