<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkcandy61.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1072" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy61.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Welcome back in HK Baby!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><em><strong>- I’ve worked very hard on this film: </strong></em>he<em><strong>’s full sense of humor, he’s a funny guy.</strong></em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>He</em></strong>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wong_Kar-wai" target="_blank">Wong Kar Wai</a>. <strong><em>this movie</em></strong>: “2046” (2004), before <a href="http://www.festival-cannes.fr/en/archives/ficheFilm/id/4433965/year/2007.html" target="_blank">My Blueberry Nights</a> (2007). And <strong><em>the</em></strong> shy young lady is Candy Law, a great fashion make-up artist and make-up consultant. She also works with the brillant filmmaker (I&#8217;ve been a big fan since my Movies studies at university) and his production company Jet Tone Films.</span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1069" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy21.jpg" alt="" width="338" height="450" /></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span><strong><em>- Due to the pro-longed production schedule, the previous make-up artist had to go due to other commitment.  Then the “2046”Art Director, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0151858/bio" target="_blank">William Cheung</a>, gave me this great opportunity. The challenge: he asked me to make a basic look and it was a huge challenge, as you know the simpler the harder. Plus I worked alone with all the famous actors like </em></strong><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Leung_Chiu-wai" target="_blank"><em><strong>Tony Leung</strong></em></a></span><strong><em>, Chang Chen, Dong Jan and actresses like </em></strong></span><span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gong_Li" target="_blank"><strong><em>Gong Li</em></strong></a><strong><em>, Faye Wong, Carina Lau. I wanted to cooperate and finished as scheduled.</em></strong>  </span></span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkcandy41.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1074" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy41.jpg" alt="" width="338" height="450" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- Working for cinema: you have to spend long hours on the job. Especially Wong wanted everything to be perfect, that was pressure on its own, and there is no tolerance for error on the sense. You have to be under control: it’s very grueling physically!</em></strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkcandy1b1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1073" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy1b1.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">In the IFC’s Starbuck, finance people around us and Candy looks like a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Burton" target="_blank">Tim Burton</a>’s character, dark, a bit gothic and full of sense of humor and lovely contradictions: </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#000000;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- Why did I name my dog, Muffin? Cause I don’t like muffins. I love wicked idea. I can be very extreme in my make-up. Just like I love books, but I don’t read into them, I look at the pictures because I don’t want to get too involved.</em></strong> </span><strong> </strong></span><em> </em></span><span style="font-size:7.5pt;color:#000000;"><em> </em></span> </span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkmuffin1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1068" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkmuffin1.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">At 24 years old, she goes to Sydney to meet her dad and study in a make-up school for movies and stage and ballet dancing. Two years later in 1999, she’s back in Hong Kong and starts to work for fashion editorials and ad campaigns: </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#000000;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- I have never thought about going outside of my country. I&#8217;m a very traditional Chinese woman: family is the most important thing. I know marriage is difficult. I always worried about the future.</em></strong></span></span></span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkcandy3c1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1071" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy3c1.jpg" alt="" /></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">The future? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- Alone without friend</em></strong> (a big laugh). <strong><em>No, I really enjoy going out with a few close friends (last for ever), staying at home with Muffin, my dog and my very wise 86 years old grandma. She calms me because she is the closest person to me at heart. I talk to people when I want to.</em></strong> </span> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Thanks a lot Candy!</span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1070" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy5c1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#000000;font-family:Arial;">Bonus tracks: leaving Candy, I meet those two unbelievable “guys” made in Hong Kong and coming from the comics planet.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Bienvenue de retour à Hong Kong Baby !</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- J’ai travaillé très dur ce film: </em></strong>il <strong><em>a beaucoup d&#8217;humour, c’est un type amusant.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><em><strong>il </strong></em>: <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wong_Kar-wai" target="_blank">Wong Kar Wai</a>. <em><strong>ce film</strong></em> : “2046” (2004), avant <a href="http://www.festival-cannes.fr/fr/archives/ficheFilm/id/4433965/year/2007.html" target="_blank">My Blueberry Nights</a> (2007). <em><strong>la</strong></em> jeune femme timide: l&#8217;excellente maquilleuse de mode et consultante pour de prestigieuses marques de maquillage qui travaille aussi avec le talentueux réalisateur  (suis fan depuis mes études de cinéma) et sa maison de production, Jet Tone Films.</span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1057" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy2.jpg" alt="" width="338" height="450" /></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><em>- En raison d’une prolongation de la production, la précédente maquilleuse a dû partir, elle avait d’autres engagements. Alors <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0151858/bio" target="_blank">William Cheung</a>, le directeur artistique de “2046”, m’a donné ma chance</em></span><span>. <em>Le test : il m’a demandé de faire un look simple. </em></span><span><em>C&#8217;était un énorme challenge quand on sait combien le plus simple est souvent le plus difficile ! D’autant que j’ai travaillé seule avec des acteurs célèbres comme </em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Leung_Chiu-wai" target="_blank"><em>Tony Leung</em></a> <em>et </em></span><span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gong_Li" target="_blank"><em>Gong Li</em></a><em>. Je voulais faire de mon mieux et finir dans les temps.</em></span></strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkcandy3c.jpg"></a><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1059" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy4.jpg" alt="" width="338" height="450" /></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- Au cinéma: tu es bloquée de longues heures sur le travail. En particulier avec Wong Kar Wai qui voulait que tout soit parfait. C’était une énorme pression, où tu n&#8217;as absolument pas droit à l&#8217;erreur. Tu dois être en maîtrise parfaite : c&#8217;est très éprouvant physiquement !Je pouvais fumer deux paquets de cigarettes par jour.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1056" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy1b.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Dans le Starbuck de l’IFC, entourée de financiers, Candy ressemble à un personnage de <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Burton" target="_blank">Tim Burton</a>, sombre, un rien gothique, plein d’humour et de jolies contradictions :</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><em><strong>- Pourquoi j’ai appelé mon chien Muffin? Parce je n&#8217;aime pas les muffins. J’aime les idées tordues. Je peux être très extrême dans mes maquillages. J’aime aussi les livres, mais je ne lis pas, je regarde les images. Je ne tiens pas être prise par l’histoire.</strong></em><span>  </span></span></span></span><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:14pt;font-family:'Times New Roman';"><strong><span> </span></strong></span></span></span></p>
<p><a href="http://mademoisellelek.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/whkmuffin.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1063" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkmuffin.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">A 24 ans, elle part à Sydney à la rencontre de son père et pour étudier dans une école de maquillage spécialisée dans le cinéma et les arts de la scène. Deux ans plus tard en 1999, elle rentre à Hong Kong et commence à travailler pour des éditoriaux de mode et campagnes publicitaires. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><em><strong>- Je n’ai jamais eu l’idée d’aller hors de mon pays. Je suis une femme chinoise conventionnelle : la famille, c&#8217;est le plus important. Je sais que le mariage est une chose difficile. Je suis toujours inquiète du futur.</strong></em></span> </p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1058" src="http://mademoisellelek.wordpress.com/files/2008/05/whkcandy3c.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Le futur? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><strong><em>- Seule sans ami</em></strong> (suivi d’un éclat de rire)<em><strong>. Non, j’aime sortir avec mes rares proches amis (à jamais les mêmes), rester à la maison avec Muffin et ma très sage grand mère de 86 ans qui m’apaise. C’est la personne qui m&#8217;est la plus proche. Je ne parle aux gens que lorsque j&#8217;en ai envie.</strong></em></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Alors un grand merci Candy !</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Bonus tracks : en quittant Candy, je croise deux supers Hong Kong toutous sortis d’un dessin allumé !</span></p>
