Mo Lei Tau Philosophy of Life


I think 'mo lei tau' is a nice philosophy in life. We should always be serious with our work, our responsibility. But when things don't go too well our way, just laugh along with it and get on with life. When challenged by obstacles, unpleasant people and unpleasant situations, we can still laugh at ourselves.

Legend of the Dragon (1990) dir. Danny Lee and Lee Lik-Chi
Fight Back to School (1991) dir. Gordan Chan
God of Gamblers III: Back to Shanghai (1991) dir. Wong Jing
Tricky Brains (1991) dir. Wong Jing
Royal Tramp (1992) dir. Wong Jing
Royal Tramp II (1992) dir. Wong Jing
King of Beggars (1992) dir. Gordan Chan
Hail the Judge (1994) dir. Wong Jing
Sixty Million Dollar Man (1995) dir. Raymond Yip
The God of Cookery (1996) dir. Stephen Chow
The Lucky Guy (1998) dir. Lee Lik-Chi

For the longest time since I was a child, I had proudly proclaimed Tricky Brains as my number one favourite film. Not anymore but I have fond memories of it.
