More than Pom Pom and Hot Hot, which is fun, I’d love to see someone release the Pom Pom films with Richard Ng and John Shum.

I saw People’s Hero at the New Beverly a few years ago on 35mm. An interesting take on Dog Day Afternoon in which the bank robber himself is moralistic and is struggling to do how much he likes everyone. It’s no masterpiece, but it’s fun and features both Tony Leungs.
