After being digitalized, the movie become much more clearer for us to view. I really have to thanks all those people who discovered the digital-thingy coz i wouldn't wanna miss a good movie like this. Well, this is a very very best film in the 1950s' of Hong Kong.

Its not easy to be an actor/actress at that time. You really have to know how to sing, dance and all the stuff... And Lin Dai is definitely a beauty at that time :)
