Thousands flock to Chiikawa gift set giveaway in Hong Kong ahead of exhibition
Thousands of Hong Kong fans of the hugely popular Japanese anime and manga series Chiikawa lined up for a merchandise giveaway in the run-up to a summer exhibition featuring the characters that are expected to draw local and foreign visitors alike. Fans queued at Austin MTR station and other locations on Sunday afternoon to collect their free party hats and balloons, which featured either Chiikawa, Usagi or Hachiware – the three most recognisable characters from the series. Gift sets were handed out at random to fans who had preregistered for the event. Those who were unable to pick up their favourite characters ended up trading their gift sets with others, their faces lighting up after making a successful swap. Among those assembled at the station was Michelle Tsang, 27, who showed up in a Chiikawa T-shirt. She said she loved the franchise because the plot, which relates closely to the lives of an employee, had a certain healing power for her. 'Usagi does not care about others' opinions and lives true to oneself, while Chiikawa is the one who works diligently but quietly,' she said.

How John Woo's Face/Off, Windtalkers and Paycheck showed his experimental side
John Woo Yu-sum's final Hollywood films before he returned to Hong Kong in the mid-2000s were excellent – with one exception. Here we look at the films made near the end of his first Hollywood adventure. 1. Face/Off (1997) Play Face/Off, which starred John Travolta and Nicolas Cage , was the first – and only – film in which he succeeded in inserting his unique approach to action in a US film. The result rivals Woo's Hong Kong classics like The Killer and Hard Boiled 'For the first time, Woo has successfully incorporated his style into an American film,' this writer wrote in the Post in 1997. 'It is a suspenseful work with a slick plot, chock-full of Woo touches. 'Woo gives his fans the best of both worlds. He makes use of the resources that American studios can offer to stage scenes, as well as investing his own visual style in the details.'
