The essential Hollywood story…wonderfully shot

18 June 2009 | by wynnwen (United States) –

The writer/director has captured the essence of a classic Hollywood tale of ambition and self-betrayal. It’s beautifully shot and lovingly constructed. Though this story revolves around the sexual exploitation within the context of a same sex relationship, the themes are at once intensely personal and universal. Anyone whose ever wanted to show and express themselves to the world has an artist, can relate.
Mr. Lam has demonstrated himself to be part of a new generation of filmmakers able to deliver well-crafted stories that paint a clear world with a definite point of view, while being accessible. We can already see the signs of a master of tone, through his great artistic choices. I look forward to seeing what else this filmmaker will bring us in the future.
