Maggie Cheung

Irma Vep (Essential Edition)
$29.99
Very modern and very French comedy about filmmaking, art and everyone else involved in the process. Maggie Cheung arrives to Paris from Hong Kong in order to create her first "art" movie. Her past acting experiences featured her athletic abilities in martial arts movies. Her casting in the French director's remake of the silent movie about vampires is her chance to break the mold and casting stereotype.

Just observing the fuss and lack of organization of the film's crew is funny in itself. What adds to the comedic feel is the cultural and language divide. But the best part is watching Maggie in her black latex catsuit that makes the funniest little noises one can expect from the action figure "cat woman" bomb shell. The obsession with Maggie's beauty is shared between the director and her costume designer. When the original director goes through a nervous breakdown there is a change of guard and the enthusiasm for Maggie seems to disappear overnight.

This is definitely not a movie for everyone. One must enjoy european cinema to get through this film. But what I really liked about the movie is the soundtrack. Some very, very French music and singing is what makes this film easier to tolerate.

A Fishy Story [VHS]
$39.99
I think this was one of Maggie Cheung's best performances. She plays a wannabe actress who is using men to pay for room and board. Kenny Bee plays the taxi driver who ends up with Maggie as his neighbor. They dislike each other at first sight. Slowly, he comes to understand that her life is no cakewalk underneath the glamorous clothes. Nice romance develops between the two despite the hardships that are encountered. Good chemistry between the leads.
