On Saturdayd, en April 15, 2017, a poster of H. H. CAPOR was affiched in the Hotel San Va, Macao.
It commemorates the filming of movies in this hotel.
San Va Hotel has served as a filming location for movies several times; such as "lsabella", a movie by Pang Ho-Cheung. This movie poster and others had always been hung in the entrance of the hotel. My plan was to add a poster for my film "Places to Die" to the billboard. But what did I find when I got to the hotel? All the posters had been removed. My reaction was that I nevertheless, adapted to the new situation, put up my poster, so to speak as the first of a new series.
Here I read again the book "The World of Suzie Wong" by Richard Mason; I have also seen the film version many times, it concerns Hong Kong, the city that enchanted me during my first visit. This enchantment is certainly due to a young Chinese woman who, with loving affection, introduced me to the city and its life in 1972. No one expels me from the paradise of my memories.
