Found this pic yes...Since it's also Halloween.<br /><br />Found this pic yesterday. Apologies for the lateness in sharing Brother Andy. Nothing fancy, but these are the little memories in life which are cherished and remembered. <br /><br />Just me on left playing a “hopping” vampire: Jiangshi... a stiff corpse dressed in official garments from the Qing Dynasty during our D & D Nite.😀🙏<br /><br />(Picture can be viewed under Halloween posting:<br />https://singapore60smusic.blogspot.com/2017/10/halloween-hungry-ghosts-pontianak-what.html)<br />FRED CHINGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-87849644906475563312019-11-03T14:28:58.782+08:002019-11-03T14:28:58.782+08:00Appreciate comment from J.T.
Your take, on stori...Appreciate comment from J.T. <br /><br />Your take, on stories like these, is brilliant. Let's just hope the robotic age will not rid us of imaginative writers and artists.

The younger generation will not appreciate the life of these forgotten eras.<br /><br />Depiction of such court intrigues in its costumed glamour such as Zhang Yimou's 'Curse of the Golden Flower' doesn't help foster the understanding of the harsh reality. The painting that you present serves to show how latter day artists romanticize relationship through flowing gossamer garments and hair of androgynous characters.<br /><br />Yes.

Could only afford to buy front row ticket at fifty cents. Also the show at 9 pm. After show neck a bit stiff. Went home and my grandfather waited at the door. I got lectured but it was actually his concern for safety. I still my young days.<br /><br />Andy Young <br />Thank you Fabian for always sharing your memories with us. Yes, I remember the stiff neck after viewing from the front rows. :-)FABIAN FOO (REGULAR BLOG CONTRIBUTOR)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-50552256748395092552019-11-01T20:12:10.650+08:002019-11-01T20:12:10.650+08:00The story is as well known as Romeo and Juliet.

The Indonesian Chinese call it SAM PEK ENG TAI.<br /><br />Peter Cheong <br />I remember watching this movie with my parents when I was young at at Jubilee Theatre opposite the Odeon. It was a Cantonese movie starring Leong Sing Por a Singapore born actor.<br /><br />Koh Daisy <br />I watched it too with my parents then...remember the grave parting scene ... it scared me then... Liang San Poh was love sick and pined away ... some romantic fairy tale ... my parents even bought the records ...😁<br /><br />Koh Daisy <br />Think there was a miscalculation and his matchmaker arrived too late.<br /><br />Andy Young <br />Thanks Daisy for the information. You've got a great memory.<br /><br />Andy Young <br />Thank you Peter. Yes, the Jubilee Theatre at North Bridge Road showed many Chinese movies. Very popular with our local goers.facebook chatsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3574244939174327228.post-91071354363643754762019-11-01T10:58:51.609+08:002019-11-01T10:58:51.609+08:00Nice story.
