It was an honour to share the joy of local movie distribution company MM2 with its 6th birthday at Shanghai Dolly, the “mm2 and You” party. Happy I signed this board ^_^
Do you know that mm2 Asia is the first local movie producer to seek a listing on the Singapore Exchange? That’s a big WOW! They have distributed (and produced for some) movies, many of which are well-loved by local and regional audiences like, Ah Boyz to Men, Nasi Lemak 2.0, 23:59, Already Famous (一泡而红), That Girl In PInafore (我的朋友, 我的同学, 我爱过的一切), The Journey (一路有你), to name just a few.
Veteran stars like Michelle Yim 米雪 also flew in to share the joy with mm2. Remember the cute up and coming actor/singer Kelvin Mun in ‘That Girl in Pinafore’ (我的朋友, 我的同学, 我爱过的一切)? 🙂
I was also thrilled to meet Joanne Yew 尤鳳音 the goddess in The Journey 一路有你. Interestingly, the story in the movie reminded me of my own story. My husband is (also) British and my family is…. very traditional (nuff said!). Through my own journey, I realised that parents’ love for children are really unconditional, and with every tug of war with the hearts, everybody grows and mature, and grows closer to each other eventually. It’s a must catch story if you still have not caught it yet (not because it resonates with mine). Not convinced? it’s the highest grossing movie in Malaysia’s history 🙂
Look how small Joanne’s face is (sob)…and oh, she’s 1.76m -_-
Wonder what’s up with mm2 for next year? For a start, they’re producing and releasing 1965. 🙂
