Rosa (1986) ?
were those rhetorical answers!?
I never quite figured out what "rhetorical" means anyway. :D

Now I'm just "that weird french guy with a cat avatar who comes to BnB once a year for no reason and then disappears again".

Tom won it :)

Rhetorical Question is a question you dont expect an answer to. The answer is already hidden in the question, or something...

I enjoyed watching Rosa. the action was ok, the story was so-so, but somehow I just enjoyed it. Performences were entertaining, and Kara Hui with short hair is drop dead gorgeous. The (non anamorphic) transfer is pretty decent ad clean as well. It's no classic or anything, but fun enough to spend 90 minutes with.

Btw... the picture above... it must be from the famous movie: 'Yet Another Movie'.
Obviously everyone easily recognises that, and in no way did I cheat ;)

I've never seen Yet Another Movie myself, but I hear it's quite good. :D

Yeah, but the prequel, Another Movie, is supposedly even better. :D

What I liked about "Rosa" was one oart of the showdown, when Yuen Biao and Dick Wei are fighting in this big refrigerator and they start stealing each other's clothes in order to keep warm.

For me seeing Kara Hui with short hair was worth watching it ...
I did like the humour in this one, and the scene you talk of was nice as well. I really really wanna see 'The Champions' sometimes, with Yuen Biao playing football. :)

It looks a bit like the house in "Twinkle, Twinkle Lucky Stars". Is it from this film?
