Hi Harry, Beige Babapapa here from the Isle of Chop Socky .......
I read an article today from one of the Hong Kong Newspapers which surprised me a bit.
It's about HK's favourite export....John Woo. Seems that "Windtalkers" isn't the only ferret in the gimp's pants.....metaphorically speaking of course....
Don't know how relevant or interesting it'll be ......
Professional Start for Woo
Hong Kong movie-maker John Woo is to produce - and possibly direct - a remake of the epic Western The Professionals as his first picture under his billion-plus US dollar deal with Columbia Pictures. The studio has hired veteran scriptwriter Bruce Feirstein to present a screenplay for the updated version of the gritty 1966 classic. Feirstein wrote the scripts for the last three James Bond films. The original film was directed by Richard Brooks from a novel by Frank O'Rourke. Set at the turn of the 19th century, it tells the story of a bunch of mercenaries who are hired by a wealthy ranch owner to track down one of their old gang who kidnapped the man's wife.
