Leila becomes mom, challenging acting skills

Monday October 6, 2008 Hong Kong

Leila tong, Samuel Pang, and Maggie Siu (邵美琪) will be working together in Dennis Law‘s new film. Leila will act a mother who has a lot of mental problems; knowing that her boyfriend sexually harassed her daughter but still does not say anything. There are a lot of more personal scenes, giving Leila’s acting skills a huge test. Dennis Law said, “I think Leila’s acting is really good. The character’s inner feelings are very complex and I really want Leila to act this part. This movie combines some of the more recent styles of detective movies into it. The main female character is a woman who knows that her boyfriend has sexually harassed her daughter, but says nothing about it. In the end she personally kills her daughter. At first I thought Leila wouldn’t agree to this part, but after she read the script she thought the character would be a big challenge for her and she accepted it”.

The main male character is to be played by Samuel Pang, who acts as Leila’s boyfriend. Dennis Law said, “Samuel considered it for a long time before finally agreeing to act in it. I am really grateful of him and Leila. Although this movie has some sensitive subjects about it, but there won’t be any graphical content.” Maggie Siu will act as a top policewoman, she will often times be very violent. It will be a new challenge!
