我想睇呀!!! [版主回覆08/04/2008 14:14:00]The movie stills are great. The cinematography and setting is very good. Try to watch this one. Be prepared that it is slow-paced.
咪又係靜靜雞錄音的那段clip！（不屑中） [版主回覆08/04/2008 17:30:00]HOHOHO!!! WRONG!!! I have JUST posted a new link because the audio quality of the original Youtube clip was not so good.
嘩, 咁快就睇戲, 我有睇到 trailer, 隻狐狸有表情架, 好正啊, 但我怕會喊, 所以應該都唔會入場睇... 剛過去的星期六/日別睇咗 "wall-e" 及 "mummy 3", "wall-e" 好好睇啊, 反而 mummy 睇得有啲悶悶地... [版主回覆08/04/2008 18:14:00]Don't worry. You won't cry. This one is NOT a tear jerker. You will love it. Right... Mummy 3 - the reviews are not so good.
好彩我冇聽到original youtube clips！冇比你欺騙，HOHOHO！ [版主回覆08/04/2008 18:13:00]So PLEASE listen to this one AND remember to give me 5 STARS. Thanks to Fan 000001.
差不多每一年都有數套這類的電影於暑假上畫.... [版主回覆08/06/2008 15:11:00]Right, but this is a very special one... much different from the Korean and Japanese ones. Recently, we have one made in HK and Japan. However, it seems that I have seen any animal films made in France and I seldom see animal films which are NOT tear jerkers. Definitely Worth Seeing!!!
必看呀，單是聽主題曲已經想入場看。 [版主回覆08/07/2008 00:13:00]GO GO GO... Please share how you feel after watching it. I really love this unique animal movie. The beautiful nature is captured in audio and visual way!!!
Oh you mean today the file will release ... too bad. [版主回覆08/07/2008 17:11:00]Why bad??? You don't need to wait any longer!!! The film is released today!!! RIGHT!!!
Are you going to introduce Hellboy: The Golden Army? Yeah!! I have watched Hellboy1 at weekend and I was really amazed. But I did not write the review about Hellboy1 because I want to do this after I watch Hellboy2 and I can compare two movies! I love 吉拿域戴拖路this director cuz he is good at directing sci-fi movies and I love sci-fi movies. We both love Pan's Labyrinth which is directed by him, right? PS. Please correct my English mistakes!! haha...practising!! [版主回覆08/07/2008 17:42:00]Yes, I will surely talk about Hellboy 2. I also think it is a good idea to compare no 1 and no 2. Besides, I will compare Hellboy 2 and Pan's Labyrinth. Please listen to the show, after you watch Hellboy 2. The director loves mixing different genres in ONE film and you right... he is also good at not only fantasy stories, but also memorable visuals. Your English is superb!!!
I will go to see this moive on tonight.....I am so happy... I think I miss it in Feb ...coz I saw the poster in AMC at that time... But I cannot find out which cinema was show on the moive... I think I miss it...
[版主回覆08/07/2008 18:16:00]Oh I see... The film is shown in HK today and PLEASE come back and share how you feel if you are free. I love this film and wanna know how others feel. Thanks!!! ^^
[版主回覆08/08/2008 11:43:00]Right!!! French films are usually slow-paced and Japanese films often try to make you cry. HAHA... That's why I advise those who do not like 子狐物語 to watch it. I personally do not find the film boring. Indeed, the visually stunning cinematography capturing the beautiful nature in different ways, the girl's personal growth and the foxes' lives engaged me throughout the whole film. Right... it is really hard to capture the foxes' lives and I love the mixture between documentary and drama. THANKS so much for coming back and sharing your views. ^^
ｉlove these photos, which brings up an adventure impression to me. I will watch it. [版主回覆08/09/2008 12:00:00]The cinematography is superb. Adventure??? Right... I think the girl tries to explore the beautiful nature by herself and learn a lot from the experience. Please watch it ans share how you feel after watching it. THANKS!!!
係喎.... 你係唔係有首映禮or優先場的飛呢... 你成日都可以起味上畫之前就睇左部戲... 我都想先賭為快 [版主回覆08/09/2008 17:48:00]Because it takes some time to prepare for the show introducing films to our audience, we have to see films earlier. We have to thank several film distributors for supporting our online radio show and allowing us to attend previews.
幾時有新節目？等到我頸都長啦！如果暑假完結，但都只係得幾段錄音！想點？ [版主回覆08/09/2008 17:43:00]The new show will be uploaded on Monday. I will talk about two films. Guess which films I will talk about!!!
我會先睇lee套, 跟住Hellboy2, 之後如有時間就先睇埋3D地心囉! 另外對機械人女友有d興趣, 你覺得如何呀?!? [版主回覆08/11/2008 13:48:00]Agree with your plan. Fox - beautiful and educational, but slow-paced. 4 / 5 Hellboy 2 - Great humor, lots of actions and great images. Lots of elements mixed, but the plot looks a bit superficial. 4 / 5 地心 - Weak plot. U had better watch the 3D version. 3.5 / 5 Cyborg She - I enjoyed it despite the ending which drags. Not sure how you feel this time. You know, some love Japanese films, while some dislike the style. Kind of like IL Mare. 3.5 / 5
I personally like Il Mare...but not 子狐物語 [版主回覆08/12/2008 20:45:00]I love IL Mare too and I hate 子狐物語!!! A tear jerker which cant move me. The Fox and the Child is completely different!
睇左 The Fox And The Child, 相當不錯, 它比 Wall-E 更能感動我. 也比 "小企鵝大長征" 好. 可能有人認為節奏有一點慢, 但我覺得如果太快, 便不能夠很細緻的描寫小女孩和狐狸的友情. 加上影像流麗, 沒有多餘的訊息. 相信 The Fox And The Child 將會是我 08 年的十大最愛. 另外, 亦睇左 "一個人的奧林匹克", 也值得一看. [版主回覆08/16/2008 03:24:00]Wow... Great to know that you love the film. ME TOO!!! VERY BEAUTIFUL & HAUNTING!!! The pace is slow, but I think the director is kind of unfolding the story and observing their changes patiently. I just love it haha. Wow... one of your top 10 this year??? Then you should listen to my show again and see if you like my analysis. ^^ 一個人的奧林匹克 - I have not seen it. A moving documentary?
I'm afriad I can't catch it in time...Only BC is showing it all day now~~~But I really want to see it [版主回覆08/19/2008 18:36:00]Why not??? You may watch it at BC!!! Tung Tung thinks it will be one of his top 10 films this year!!! To me, it maybe one of my top 20!!! AND it seems that many HK people have not heard of this beautiful film mixing documentary and drama. What a pity!!!!
I'm just afraid that it'd be off by this weekend~~~ If not, I would definitely go to BC and see it this weekend!!! Wish me luck... [版主回覆08/20/2008 14:38:00]Good Luck!!! The reviews of this film in HK are very positive. Be prepared that the film is slow-paced, though.
Maybe I would be able to see it if typhoon is hoisted tomorrow! I didn't know about what the other critics say about this in HK. I heard only your show talking about it~ Slow-pace I can deal with, but tear-jerker I can't tolerate... [版主回覆08/21/2008 13:17:00]Oh then you will probably like it. TYPHOON... PLEASE COME!!! (The Begging-for-Typhoon Ceremony is being held!!!)
Finally watched it yesterday, when the compliants of my grumpy ankle quiet down a bit. There was a dejavu moment at the beginning; it's as if the story evolves out of the Little Prince but soon takes on a wonderful life on its own, one full of fun, one that exudes colors in various shades! It's a shame that the girl and the renard cannot fit 'happily ever after' into each other's habitant. But it can't be helped, I guess... I do believe that the renard has taken to the girl near the end when she climbs all the way down from the mountains to her porch, and out of the blue! Renard must also be curious, like the girl, to have a sneak peep at her friend's other life. Poor renard, she never expects to be traped! Poor girl, it's never her intention to agitate or harm her friend! But the memories of their time together won't be wasted. Memories will live on and pass on to the generations to come, as shown in the end... [版主回覆08/22/2008 11:19:00]Spoiler Warning Yes... the story is simple, beautiful and educational. The film shows us how the mother nature works.
(continue) It's also interesting to see that the boy and the mother understand the renard (love the sound of this word! )differently. The mother thinks that the renard no longer trusts her cos she severed the tie between them the moment she unthinkingly closed the bedroom door, this implies that, as a grown-up, she believes animals are capable of trust, but not love. Renard will not return her love. Her son, however, keeps up a cheerful spirit, thinks the renard can love (does it mean he thinks the renard loved his mum?).
This difference prompts me to ponder over the relationship between men and their pets; lots of pet owners are amazed that their dogs/cats are like psychics, they often sense the owners' moods, and are there to offer due comfort. Are our dogs/cats capable of caring for 'aliens' (probably what humans are in their eye)? Are they showing that they care when they come nuzzling and purring against our legs? Or is it simply that they pick up the usual signs of bad mood - our dull tone, the constant heavy breathing and footsteps, and so wander over to do the usual tricks -to make things/us normal again? What is it? Can science tell us? But even if it can, I don't really want to know. There're forbidden zones, just like the girl learns that summer, when renard turns her red tail and never comes back...
[版主回覆08/22/2008 11:33:00]I personally think the LOVE is still there, but the fact is that their lives are very different and the fox may be scared by the locked area. 6 years ago, I studied English in Scotland for 6 weeks. I stayed in a host family in which there is a dog called Nancy. I talked to her every day in English of course haha... and on my LAST day in Scotland, Nancy suddenly jumped onto my lap and looked at me. I was surprised and the mother in the family told me that Nancy would miss me because she knew I was going when she SAW my luggage in the doorway. At that moment, I could not help crying because I knew I would not see Nancy and the family again in my life. Nancy indeed did not need to cuddle me and please me as I was not the one who fed her. So her last move touched me a lot and since then I believe Nancy knew things.
(continue) The film also stirred me to reconsider the idea of zoo - do we need them? 熊貓館、鯊魚館 suddenly looked awfully selfish and evil, particulary so when I saw the ending credit and the names of the foxes - et les renards! It was an immensely touching moment cos the crew expressed their thanks and respect for the cute animals. Btw, thanks for letting us know the foxes were properly cared for during the filming; I was so disturbed after one fell off the window and laid in a pool of blood, motionless. This is the reason I didn't watch 赤壁 ; horses come kneeling down in front of the camera is too much for me. Do you know if that's special effect? Hope so And here's the bit in Little Prince where the renard muses on the art and magic of taming, if you're interested. I think it's brilliant. The Little Prince [版主回覆08/22/2008 11:22:00]Hey thanks for raising this interesting points. Did they show the names of ALL the foxes in the film in the credit??? Wow... I'm impressed by their respect to animals. Don't worry. The motionless one should be a prop or a trained fox.
hey, about the credit to the renards. Yes a, I think they did name them in the ending credit, at least what I saw was 'et les renards: ' (and the foxes), followed by two or three lines and along those lines, there were one or two names as far as I could see. (you know the credit just flies up up up, and it's in french ma) Humph! can't believe I wept over the bloody prop Hahaha, but I was so glad to no no renards were hurt delibrately. Btw, this is just a sidekick; in this movie and Little Prince, foxes are gentle, trusting, lovely creatures whereas we demonize them as 狐狸精,狐妖 . How curious! [版主回覆08/23/2008 13:19:00]Right... perhaps foxes are just animals which struggle a lot to survive... Indeed we humans are cunning sometimes.
YES!!! I've seen it, and I loved it!!! I haven't seen something quite like this!!! Very good film, combining drama and documentary successfully~~~ Oh, the cinematography is really breath-taking! The film got such a realistic and natural feel to it, dunno why?! The pace is ok for me, not really too slow honestly. And I like the music throughout the film, and the song at the end credits. Charming, refreshing, and with some very good messages!!! Glad that I didn't miss it at the theatre~~ [版主回覆08/25/2008 17:55:00]So happy for you... saw it during the typhoon??? Do you think it will be one of your top 10 films this year??? It will be one of my top 20. The film is called Le Renard et L'Enfant in French. The song is Windy Whistle by Alice Lewis. I love it very much!!! Once again it is a pity that not many people have heard of it haha...
Yeah! I saw it during typhoon~~~ I didn't see many films this year, so I guess it could well be in my top 10 list! I agree that not many people even noticed this film......too bad~~~ Anyway, you've done your job! [版主回覆08/26/2008 15:05:00]Wow... it is also in Tung Tung's top 10 list!!! You guys really have TASTE ^^ HAHA!!! Thanks!
I am so happy that many people like “The Fox and The Child” Let me introduce another movie in my “Top 10 Favorites in 2008” It is “ 天水圍的日與夜 ”, a masterpiece from Ann Hui. I must admit that I could not help crying during the show. It is really touching. Hope you all enjoy it.
[版主回覆08/28/2008 01:12:00]Tung Tung: I love both films. BUT I have to wait for 4 more months so that I can finalize my top 10 movies list. 天水圍的日與夜 has a good cast. The characters and lines are memorable. A small film with a big heart. I also love the film, but somehow I think it can also be a story about the residents of Sham Shui Po or a story about the people living at Tun Mum. What do you think?
Yes, me too. My list of "Top 10" is still prelim and will not be finalized until Dec-31. I agree that the story of “ 天水圍的日與夜 ” can be happened in Sham Sui Po or anywhere. But to me, no mater where the story is, it is still a good movie. [版主回覆08/29/2008 13:11:00]AGREE!!!

回覆刪除顏色好靚,好sharp, 睇落去好舒服~片尾曲一流~散場的時候都記得首歌的melody~加上冇用任何特技都拍到動物, 大自然同人點樣簡單相處~真係一流!

睇左 The Fox And The Child, 相當不錯, 它比 Wall-E 更能感動我.
回覆刪除也比 "小企鵝大長征" 好. 可能有人認為節奏有一點慢,
但我覺得如果太快, 便不能夠很細緻的描寫小女孩和狐狸的友情.
加上影像流麗, 沒有多餘的訊息.
相信 The Fox And The Child 將會是我 08 年的十大最愛.

[版主回覆08/22/2008 11:22:00]Hey thanks for raising this interesting points. Did they show the names of ALL the foxes in the film in the credit??? Wow... I'm impressed by their respect to animals. Don't worry. The motionless one should be a prop or a trained fox.
hey, about the credit to the renards. Yes a, I think they did name them in the ending credit, at least what I saw was 'et les renards: ' (and the foxes), followed by two or three lines and along those lines, there were one or two names as far as I could see. (you know the credit just flies up up up, and it's in french ma)
回覆刪除Humph! can't believe I wept over the bloody prop Hahaha, but I was so glad to no no renards were hurt delibrately. Btw, this is just a sidekick; in this movie and Little Prince, foxes are gentle, trusting, lovely creatures whereas we demonize them as 狐狸精,狐妖 . How curious!
[版主回覆08/23/2008 13:19:00]Right... perhaps foxes are just animals which struggle a lot to survive... Indeed we humans are cunning sometimes.
YES!!! I've seen it, and I loved it!!! I haven't seen something quite like this!!!
回覆刪除Very good film, combining drama and documentary successfully~~~
Oh, the cinematography is really breath-taking!
The film got such a realistic and natural feel to it, dunno why?!
The pace is ok for me, not really too slow honestly.
And I like the music throughout the film, and the song at the end credits.
Charming, refreshing, and with some very good messages!!! Glad that I didn't miss it at the theatre~~
[版主回覆08/25/2008 17:55:00]So happy for you... saw it during the typhoon??? Do you think it will be one of your top 10 films this year??? It will be one of my top 20. The film is called Le Renard et L'Enfant in French. The song is Windy Whistle by Alice Lewis. I love it very much!!! Once again it is a pity that not many people have heard of it haha...
Yeah! I saw it during typhoon~~~
回覆刪除I didn't see many films this year, so I guess it could well be in my top 10 list!
I agree that not many people even noticed this film......too bad~~~
Anyway, you've done your job!
[版主回覆08/26/2008 15:05:00]Wow... it is also in Tung Tung's top 10 list!!! You guys really have TASTE ^^ HAHA!!! Thanks!
I am so happy that many people like “The Fox and The Child”
回覆刪除Let me introduce another movie in my “Top 10 Favorites in 2008”
It is “ 天水圍的日與夜 ”, a masterpiece from Ann Hui.
I must admit that I could not help crying during the show.
It is really touching. Hope you all enjoy it.
[版主回覆08/28/2008 01:12:00]Tung Tung: I love both films. BUT I have to wait for 4 more months so that I can finalize my top 10 movies list. 天水圍的日與夜 has a good cast. The characters and lines are memorable. A small film with a big heart. I also love the film, but somehow I think it can also be a story about the residents of Sham Shui Po or a story about the people living at Tun Mum. What do you think?
Yes, me too. My list of "Top 10" is still prelim and will not be finalized until Dec-31.
回覆刪除I agree that the story of “ 天水圍的日與夜 ” can be happened in Sham Sui Po or anywhere. But to me, no mater where the story is, it is still a good movie.
[版主回覆08/29/2008 13:11:00]AGREE!!!
