Instead, she brings the Hong Kong of the 50s and 60s to life on her own terms with the story of Shui-Mei (Patricia Ha), a \"salt water girl\" from the outskirts of the city, who finds a way out of poverty in the Red Light district of Wan Chai, Hong Kong. Over the years, she rises through the ranks, discovering a world of equal hardship and sisterly camaraderie, where colourful characters abound – among them Jimmy (Anthony Wong, in his debut role), a mixed-race kid looking for his father in the crowd of thirsty American sailors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePenned by John Chan Koon Chung (My Heart Is That Eternal Rose), MY NAME AIN'T SUZIE brings a New Wave sensibility to the waning years of the Shaw Brothers Studio with a decade spanning epic that resourcefully reconstructs a bygone era of Cantonese cinema. A rags-to-riches story blending romance and brothel drama, Chen's film is above all a tale of feminine resilience at the nexus of historical events and shifting colonial powers.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecial Features and Technical Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEWLY COMMISSIONED 2K RESTORATION\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efrom the original camera negatives and best surviving elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEW\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInterview with director Angie Chen (12mins, 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEW\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eInterview with screenwriter and planner John Chan (17mins, 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEW\u003c\/b\u003e\"Becoming Jimmy\" on casting Anthony Wong, with Angie Chen, John Chan, and Anthony Wong (8mins, 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNEW\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAngie Chen on \"Working in Hong Kong\" (10mins, 2026)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Theatrical Trailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBooklet with new writing by Xueli Wang\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KANI","offers":[{"title":"BLU-RAY (STANDARD EDITION)","offer_id":48886224093403,"sku":null,"price":44.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/6379\/4395\/files\/713yb6ttlkL._SL1500.jpg?v=1781721035","url":"https:\/\/baystvideo.com\/products\/my-name-aint-suzie-1985","provider":"Bay Street Video","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
