昔日的美好日子，今天回想感覺已不一樣。
回憶是有選擇的，就如文字、圖像
以及我們生活中的所有抉擇一樣。
我一直好奇和困擾，究竟 “Jeremy”還是否存在。
當然每每有新觀眾看《甜蜜蜜》，都會發現我這個「複製人」。
還記得電影籌拍初期，張曼玉打電話給我（她從來沒試過，往後也沒有）說
「我剛讀到一個劇本，想起了你。」
「為何是我？」我問。
「因為裡面有一個老外角色經常喝酒，又有一個患有愛滋病、在泰國從娼的女朋友…」
「…就是這樣？」
「不…更差的是」她說「他是我的英語老師…」
「然後…?」
「在重慶大慶有一場愛情戲…」
「我來做」我二話不說。
後來，重慶大慶這場愛情戲的主角…是張曼玉跟黎明，而不是跟我﹗
The good old times are not what they used to be.
Memory is selective, as words and images are,
and all our choices in life.
I am often surprised, and more often distraught that “Jeremy” still exists.
Of course he is a “me” kind “of “Clone” that keeps on replicating every time every new viewer watches“Comrades : Almost a Love Story”.
When the film was in preparation period, Maggie Cheung called me (which she had never done before and has not done since) and said
“Chris, I just read a script that made me think of you.”
“Why me? ” I asked.
“Because it’s about and old Gweilo who drinks too much and has a Thai Prostitute girlfriend who has aids...”
“…That’s it ?” I asked.
“No, it gets worse…” Maggie replied “He is my English teacher and …”
“and What ??”
“There is this love scene in Chungking Mansions.”
“I’ll do it.” I replied.
There was a love scene in Chungking Mansions…but it was between Leon and Maggie, not with me!
