When I was a teenager I watched this bad movie called "The Hole." In the movie, they played some Grace Chang music. I learned that Grace Chang was a famous actress of the Asian musical genre of the '60s. She was probably the best actress from that period. It's a genre I like that not that many Americans know about. You can't find their movies on Amazon. I buy my musicals from yesasia.com. Many of the musicals are subtitled in English although I had to buy a specific DVD player. Too Late for Love stars Ivy Ling Po, another actress of the genre. This movie is a downer though. It's about a newly wedded couple. The husband goes off to war and the wife has to deal with his mean mother who wants her out of there. Ivy becomes sick though and the husband gets an injury with the war as well. There are only three musical numbers in the movie. The acting was weak at times. I've seen better movies from Ivy Ling Po and the Shaw Brothers. Still, it was ok.
