Cultural Conversation: Nicole Kidman in Hong Kong to film "Expats", an Amazon Series

Hi there! So I realise this is a bit outdated now, but here is my take on the bru-ha-ha surrounding Nicole Kidman in Hong Kong last month (August 2021) to film the Amazon Series "The Expats" (based on the Janice Lee novel "The Expatriates"). (I think I said July in the video, but it was August. :) This is just something I wanted to do because it hits on a few cultural differences that I've experienced in my over 30 years of living in Hong Kong. The information I refer to is based on the following news articles and of course, all is "alleged" to have happen ... and then not to have happened: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/20/wo... https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/h... https://variety.com/2021/global/asia/... There were more I looked at, but that's the general gist of it all. And just in case it's not clear (but it probably is because I say it enough): I love Hong Kong and I love Nicole Kidman! (And by saying what I love, you can no doubt guess what I DON'T love!) In any case, I hope my insight will shed some respectful light on the situation and hopefully when she returns in November, there won't be any controversy ... but then again, like they always say ... even bad publicity is publicity ... so look for some fireworks to go off in November -- either real or manufactured! If you like the video, thumbs it up and subscribe with notifications ... I hope to do more of these cultural conversations because now that I'm in the US for an extended period of time, I'm realising how much I miss the HK way of life: Simple, direct, respectful .... ahhhhh!!!! Is it too late to preserve it? I need to do another video before the changes that have been taking place make us all forget what made Hong Kong so special in the first place. (Were there problems, yes - but no one can deny how special it was.) Happy watching, and remember to ROLL with it! :) Best, Sue PS. Follow me on IG and FB: @cantonesecorner PPS.
