Director Paang Hou Tseung is one of the first movers. He directed the movie "Trivial Matters" -- whose name comes directly from Mandarin instead of Cantonese. Although this move lost him much of his Hong Kong audience, it was successful in attracting people from Mainland China. "Trivial Matters" is a movie with several interesting elements, including mysterious fairy tales, unbreakable brotherhood, beautiful love stories, and men struggling to choose between heaven and hell. In this movie, you can see many familiar faces including Edison Chen and Chapman Dou. And overall, although the movie is all about trivial matters, critics have been positive and audiences have found it entertaining. That said, a good director doesn't need a once-in-a-century story to make a good movie; in fact, he could simply make one with trivial matters. ----Pinyin---- po3 si6 ji4 gam1 nin4 lai4 noi6 dei6 man4 faa3 tung4 gong2 toi4 man4 faa3 ge3 gaau1 lau4 jyut6 lai4 jyut6 do1, paang4 hou3 coeng4 dou6 jin2 zau6 hai6 zyu2 zoeng1 jung4 hap3 loeng5 ngon6 saam1 dei6 man4 faa3 ge3 leng5 tau4 joeng4. keoi5 san1 tai2 lik6 hang4 gam2 paak3 zo2 ni1 bou6 《po3 si6 ji4》 — — go3 din6 jing2 meng2 zau6 hai6 lai4 zi6 gwok3 jyu5 （ pou2 tung1 waa2 ）. ni1 jat1 ziu1 m4 daan1 zi2 mou5 ling6 keoi5 sat1 heoi3 hoeng1 gong2 ge3 gun1 zung3, faan1 ji4 zung6 kong3 daai6 zo2 ni1 bou6 pin2 hai2 noi6 dei6 ge3 sau6 zung3. 《po3 si6 ji4》 hai6 jat1 bou6 baau1 ham4 zo2 so2 jau5 jyun4 sou3 ge3 din6 jing2 , gaan2 zik6 hai6 daai6 pun4 coi3. ceoi4 zo2 hoi2 sai6 saan1 mang4 ge3 sing4 nok6, hing1 dai6 cing4 sam1 ge3 paang1 baai3, zung6 jau5 ci3 gik1 san4 ging1 ge3 hoeng1 jim6, fuk6 gu2 gaan2 pok3 ge3 go1 mou5, hung2 bou3 ling4 ji6 ge3 cyun4 man4, sang1 sei2 zi1 gaan1 ge3 zang1 zaat3 gang3 gaa1 hai6 siu2 bat1 liu5 ge3 maang5 liu2. nei5 ho2 ji5 tai2 dou3 seng4 kwan4 ge3 suk6 sik1 min6 hung2 ceot1 jin6 hai2 ni1 bou6 pin2 jap6 min6, can4 gun3 hei1 ge3 ci3 so2 kei4 jyu6, dou6 man4 zaak6 ge3 giu3 gai1 gu3 si6, jik6 zi2 bat1 gwo3 hai6 ni1 bou6 pin2 ge3 siu2 siu2 caap3 kuk1. pit3 hoi1 ni1 di1 m4 gong2, din6 jing2 jap6 min6 pok6 sat6 mou4 waa4 ge3 zeoi6 si6 fong1 sik1 tung4 zing1 hon5 diu1 zyun3 ge3 kek6 cing4 jik6 hai6 keoi5 bei6 sau6 teoi1 sung4 ge3 jyun4 jan1 zi1 jat1. gwai1 gan1 gau3 dai2, naa5 paa3 hai6 naan4 dang1 daai6 aa1 zi1 tong4 ge3 " sap1 seoi3 " so2 si6, jik6 ho2 ji5 hai2 dou6 jin2 ge3 sau2 soeng6 bin3 sing4 ling61 jan4 paak3 ngon3 giu3 zyut3 ge3 lin4 coeng4 hou2 hei3. ni1 di1 sin1 zi3 giu3 sai1 lei6. --------------------------- Learn Cantonese with CantoneseClass101!
