oops, I forgot

I was actually quite impressed with Wang Lihong’s performance in Lust:Caution. lzh assures me he’s famous for singing. I thought he was famous for his silly English name (Wang Lihom?) and all the ads he’s in. Anyway, I certainly wasn’t expecting any acting skills from him, and yet… He really did do a very good job of Kuang Yu Min, from the naive, idealistic university student in Hong Kong to the matured, hardened Underground fighter in Shanghai three years later. Good work.
