Sleepless Fashion / Yu shi shang tong ju (2011)
Drama
Eight years after the idol drama Love Storm, Vic Chou and Vivian Hsu join hands once again in the big-screen comedy Sleepless Fashion. The charming stars team up with Canto-pop legend Alan Tam, singer Kimi Qiao, online celebrity the Chopsticks Brothers, and character actor Lam Suet in the hilarious, inspirational, and surprisingly touching underdog tale from poet-turned-director Yin Lichuan (writer of Zhang Yimou’s Under the Hawthorn Tree movie). Vic Chou sheds his idol image to play arrogant fashion magazine editor Zhou Xiaohui, who is fired by his treacherous boss Alex (Alan Tam) for being too overtly outstanding. Eager to fight back, Xiaohui assembles a ragtag team of professional losers, including nerdy runner Yinghong (Vivian Hsu), clueless rich kid Wuyang (Kimi Qiao), and a country bumpkin photographer (Wang Taili), to embark on their bittersweet road back to success.
Starring: Vic Chow, Vivian Hsu, Xiao Chun, Renlang Qiao, Alan Tam, Suet Lam
