Product Information


導演：王天林
Director: Wong Tin Lam

　　藕絲已斷；玉鏡有裂痕！
　　恩愛頓成怨恨；多情卻似無情！
　　鴛鴦蝴蝶派小說代表作！銀幕版本最經典作！

　　六十年代「電懋」與「邵氏」之間的競爭日趨劇烈，經常出現鬧雙胞與不惜工本互相搶拍的情形。《啼笑姻緣》便是兩大公司動用龐大人力物力競逐拍攝的其中一部，均以三十年代在上海風糜一時的張恨水同名原著為本。在此之前兩者已搶拍過黃梅調影片《寶蓮燈》。「電懋」吸收了後者在趕拍下成績難免會大打折扣的教訓，決定慢功出細貨，力求彫琢，結果雖然公映在後，失去先機，但卻嬴盡了口碑，一眾演員都有優秀的演出，其中尤以喬宏一改魯頓木訥的型像，初演反派，維肖維妙，可惜因版權問題，片中角色的名字都與原著近音而不同字，片名也由《啼笑因緣》改為《啼笑姻緣》。

　　In the 1960s, MP & GI (Motion Picture & General Investment), the production company behind The Story of Three Loves, and Shaw Brothers were fierce competitors in the Hong Kong motion picture industry. On more than one occasion, both studios would embark on the same story and compete to bring it to the screen. The Story of Three Loves was one of such examples. Based upon a hugely popular romance novel by Shanghai writer Zhang Henshui, the film tells the intriguing relationship between a rich Beijing college boy and three young women, a street artist, an upper class lady and a teahouse songstress. Widely considered to be the better film, this MP & GI version features a saucy performance by Roy Chiao, who plays an evil warlord lusting after the beauty of one of the women.

Can't wait to see Part II... Customer Review Rated Bad 9 - 9 out of 10
After watching Part I of this terrific melodrama, I am very eager to see Part II. The cast is great, the movie looks good (although it clearly did not have the big budget that Shaw Bros. lavished on its comparable films), and the story is very involving. Lots of terrific songs from Ge Lan! Qiao Hong is a revelation as the overbearing warlord. Very highly recommended.

This customer review refers to The Story Of Three Loves I
Another GREAT performance from a GREAT CAST Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
STORY OF THREE LOVES was the third movie that BOTH
CATHAY and SHAW had filmed in a frenzied competitive
move to produce movies based on the same story. Nowadays it is really fun to see which studio made the
better of the 3 sets of duplicate movies. For me, CATHAY has always have a better cast because performers like Ge Lan, Lin Cui and Roy Chiao are just
too special there are no equivalent talents over in the
Shaw stable. Specially Ge Lan, she gave another"tour-de
-force" performance playing dual roles. Roy Chiao was
equally good as the arch villain warlord and Lin Cui and Wang Yin gave their usual solid performances proving their stellar stature in that era. One hopes that Cathay will release their other triumphant
show "Magic Lamp" soon so fans can relish the great
jobs that Ge Lan, Lin Cui and Yu Min did.
