This is my reply:

I’m very glad you like Fan Wing. I haven’t noticed how he wore his boxer. You have very keen eyes for this kind of thing.

I feel sad that you haven’t seen many films in this film festival, because if you had seen it, you might have provided us with your precious list of MOST DESIRABLE ACTORS like the list you made for the film festival in October 2006.

Because you can’t give us your list this time, I think I have to do it by myself.

--I think it’s a little bit funny that my most desirable actor in the festival, Ivan Fenyo, stars in my least favorite film in the festival, CHILDREN OF GLORY. Things like this used to happen once in the World Film Festival of Bangkok in October 2003. In that festival, my most desirable actor is Aki Avni, who stars in THE RETURN FROM INDIA (2002, Menahem Golan, Israel, F), which is not only my least favorite film in the festival, but is also one of my least favorite (or most hated) films of all time.
