EDIT: you'll probably die of old age long before the trailer is loaded. :lol:
That's how slow it is...

hey,

sort of a tod towards Traffic I read. Trailer makes it look atmospheric and Yee is no stranger to darkness either, in combination with working with character deoth. To see Anita Yuen in a big vehicle again is delightful. Think she's been doing TV mostly lately but did appear in Derek Chiu's underrated Love Trilogy a few years back.

From monkeypeaches:
Here are the two teaser poster designs for Protégé, featuring an unblossoming and a blossoming opium. The tagline printed on the poster is "Every truth about drugs."

Thanks for head's up. I too will be looking forward to seeing Anita Yuen back in a high profile movie. Great actress.
