Sun shines in new film
In Hong Kong director Teddy Chan's latest film, Bodyguards and Assassins (Shiyue Weicheng), mainland star Li Ming is transformed from a beggar into a rich young man who has round glasses that make him look like John Lennon.
The film is set in 1905, when Sun Yat-sen is collecting funds in Hong Kong in order to topple the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). On hearing that assassins will target Sun, a group of people sharing his revolutionary ideals gather to escort Sun safely back to Guangzhou.
