Vivian Chow to star in new Giddens Ko film

Vivian Chow seems to have reached the point in her career and her life where she can chose projects based on factors other than the need to work, the quality of the script or who else is involved in the movie. One of the main reasons she is on this picture is that it is a quick commute from Hong Kong to Taiwan--another is that Giddens Ko used every connection he had and pulled every string he could find to convince her that she was essential to success.

While we are on the subject of Vivian Chow, here are couple of unlikely images of her from the delightful but sadly no longer updated "Girls with Guns" section from Alex Smits' site.
