About C'est La Vie Mon Cheri
Unable to make it as a commercial success because he staunchly refuses to sell out, a struggling Hong Kong musician rediscovers his love of music and regains an interest in his life's meaning through his relationship with a dying girl.
Directed by Derek Yee Tung-Sing, C'est La Vie Mon Cheri leans on a strong ensemble — Lau Ching-Wan, Anita Yuen Wing-Yee, Paul Chun Pui — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1993.
