Anita Mui
I am very sorry to report Anita Mui has died of cancer at the age of 40. A Channel News Asia article describes her as a Cantopop diva but I knew her best as an actress from A Better Tomorrow III, Moon Warriors and the indescribable genius of Heroic Trio (let us overlook her role in Rumble in the Bronx). The Straight Times features a news-clip while the People's Daily offers a more elegaic tribute, quoting Mui:
Instant shining is not eternity. Show business is a hard life. I wonder how many people will remember me after I leave the business for good. My hope is that when they feel bored and look at the stars in the sky, people will think of my name.
