Better Late Than Never


This is Tony Leung Chiu Wei, Hong Kong actor that played the role that won Leonardo DiCaprio an Oscar nomination for his role in The Departed. What you don't know is that the movie was a remake of the Hong Kong hit, Infernal Affairs.


Matt Damon does not hold a candle to Andy Lau in the movie. Andy's been acting for much longer than Matt Damon. I've always called him the Chinese Tom Cruise (back in the day when Mr. Cruise was not a Scientology nutcase). I actually saw him in concert in America when I was 14 years old - my first concert ever!)


Shame on Martin Scorcese and Hollywood for not giving credit where credit is due. They should have never given them the rights to the movie. If you haven't seen Infernal Affairs, you are definitely missing out!
