Synopsis
An orphaned young woman (Lin) arrives in Hong Kong and becomes a nightclub singer. She strikes up a romance with a rich boy (Kwan) whose father's sudden demise left him heavily in debt. Determined to help her lover through his crisis, she agrees behind his back to accompany a rich man to a trip in exchange of money to help pay the debt, only leaving her lover thinking that he is betrayed. For her role as a woman of grit, Lin won the Best Actress award—her forth—at the 1962 Asian Film Festival. Four of the films produced in 1961 in the Shawscope process were directed by Doe, ranging from colour musical to black-and-white wenyi film. The lyric of this romance's sorrowful theme song, which has become a classic, was penned by Doe himself.*This digital version was telecined in HD from the original camera negative in early 2000s by the film company.
