Lydia Shum

I am saddened to learn of the death of Hong Kong actress Lydia Shum, on February 19, 2008.

She was an immortal in my mind; a woman whose screen presence never failed to make me laugh.

I discovered her in the earliest days of my Asian film adventure.

A nice remembrance piece is posted at Sensasian's web site which includes her impressively extensive filmography.

This direct link will take you to the rememberance piece in the event the item is no longer on the homepage.

She will be missed.
