In the short story , you reference the 1988 Stanley Kwan Kam-pang film , which stars Anita Mui Yim-fong and Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing. How did you come across the film? Which other Hong Kong directors and actors do you follow? Im a big fan of Hong Kong cinema and I guess my favourites are Wong Kar-wai, John Woo Yu-sum and Johnnie To Kei-fung. I also love martial arts filmmakers such as Jackie Chan, King Hu, the Shaw brothers and of course Bruce Lee. I just saw a retrospective of Stephen Chow Sing-chi movies. Rouge, however, I got by total chance, I am not sure how. Maybe I even bought it in Taipei. I picked it up mainly because of the lead actors and for some reason … this random one just got me thinking: What if some guy had a girl tell him this story about being reincarnated, sort of like in the movie, and then later he sees the movie? So then I wrote that story. scmp/lifestyle/books/article/1629064/author-david-gordons-chequered-past-inspires-his-writing
