THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. then she emerges as one of the most BEAUTIFUL creatures ever graces the silver screen. she definitely is a gem, even to me, a chinese born & bred in hongkong. and her range of acting and other abilities... with her around, 'my world' has become a much better place. if only i could have had jane austen's flair in commanding her exquisite language to express my admirations to this EXTRAORDINARY lady, namely Sally Hawkins... i chanced to know about this ‘gorgeous lady’ from her 2007 rendition of jane austen’s persuasion heroine anne elliot.
