Last
Lunar New Year, our team from moviexclusive.com managed
to witness the opening ceremony of Jack Neo's "Just
Follow Law" (You can read the coverage here).
Now almost a year later, the finished product is ready
to be projected onto the big screen.
Stars Gurmit Singh, Fann Wong, director Jack Neo, renowned
music producer Billy Koh and General Manager Lim Teck
from InnoForm Media were present at today's "Just
Follow Law" press conference held at GV Vivo.
The idea of "Just Follow Law" was first pitched
to Fann Wong by Director Neo during one of their many
backstage meetups although the funny thing is both of
them can't agree exactly where did the agreement took
place.
The ever funny Gurmit and Jack contributed plenty of
bone-tickling ancedotes, one of them is a supposedly
sexy shower scene in the film but Gurmit lamented that
if you pull the camera way backward, you will see that
Fann is actually heavily covered with tapes and towels.
As
to how she mastered the characteristics of a man in
the movie, Fann was queried by one of the media if she
indeed has sought advice from his beau, Christopher
Lee. The ever friendly Fann explained that since Lee
is not familiar with the requirements of the script,
she can only managed to coach him on doing a brief demo
of how a man walk during one of their dinner outing
and yes *gasp* in public!
Being
one of the prominent judges for Project Superstar and
also a mentor to local artistes such as A-Do and JJ
Lin, Billy Koh's music company, Ocean's Butterflies
was commissioned by Jack Neo to create the music for
"Just Follow Law". Instead of doing it in-house
as per other J-Team productions, it's a refreshing attempt
by Neo although Billy admits it's tough to do up the
lyrics for the former due to his demanding standards.
According
to InnoForm Media's General Manager Lim Teck, the rights
for "Just Follow Law" was sold to numerous
Asian countries including Malaysia where Gurmit has
a pretty strong fan base and also due to the fact that
Singapore's most marketable artiste Fann was in it as
well.
Since Christopher was unable to attend the night's gala
premiere, Fann has hinted that she might be bringing
along Lee to watch "Just Follow Law" when
it opens. And so if you are one of those lucky souls,
you might perhaps spot the pair of lovebirds getting
all cosy inside the cool cinema hall.
Moviexclusive.com is not encouraging you to barge in
of course. Just Follow Lor to buy tickets in the theaters
this Lunar New Year and have a laughing start to a lucky
PIG year courtesy of Jack, Fann and Gurmit.

Follow Law opens islandwide 15 February 2007
