The veteran actor stars as Poon Ka Fai, a Hong Kong character actor whose bitterness and criticism of the territory's flagging film industry have left him off the short list of top actors. Still, Ka Fai is devoted to his craft, and is respected by many fans, including Faye Ng (newcomer Huo Si Yan), a fledgling extra/stuntwoman/actress who ingratiates herself into Ka Fai's life. Ka Fai takes her under his wing, and with his expert guidance and teaching, a star is born. But romance also blossoms between teacher and pupil. With Faye's star on the rise, can Ka Fai somehow rise to the challenge and resurrect his own career? Laurence Lau's last film was the acclaimed drama Spacked Out, but My Name is Fame eschews that film's sordid realism for a rosier version of reality. My Name is Fame presents an affectionate portrait of the troubled Hong Kong film industry, acknowledging its myriad challenges, but also lauding its creativity, energy, and above all, perseverance. True to its Hong Kong Cinema trappings, the film is loaded with in-jokes and star cameos, including appearances by actors like Ekin Cheng, Fiona Sit, Niki Chow, and Tony Leung Ka Fai, and filmmakers like Ann Hui and Gordon Chan. One of the bigger cinema surprises out of Hong Kong in 2006, My Name is Fame is a funny, intelligent, and affectionate look at a film industry in transition - as well as a hopeful wish for a better tomorrow.
