Gu niang shi ba yi dou hua Girls are flowers [motion picture] / Director, Wong Yiu. Girls at eighteen Hong Kong. Hong Kong : Chi Luen Film Company Ltd., 1966. Hong Kong : Tai Shing Film Co. [Distribution] ; Wader Motion Picture & Development Co., Ltd [Filming], 1966 [Release]. 98 min. : sd., b&w ; 35 mm. Film criticism: Directed by Wong Yiu, 'Girls Are Flowers' is a huge box office success. Despite its simple plot and some relatively unconvincing scenes towards the end, the entire story unfolds in a lucid, animated manner right from the beginning…. The central character Pearl Chan is worth special mention. Without her, the film would have failed to entertain, and Tsi-ying and Hoi-yin would have to go through even more hardships before their love blossoms. Nancy Sit Kar-yin fleshed out this teenage girl character with a charming, extraordinary performance. (Yeung Mei, 'Girls Are Flowers', 'Chinese Student Weekly', No 752, 16 December 1966.)

After the untimely death of her father, Ng Hoi-yin discontinues her studies in education in Macau and goes to stay with her wet nurse Aunt Chu, a live-in maid with the Chan family in Hong Kong. Even the mischievous daughter Pearl Chan comes under the charm of the proficient judo practitioner who is hired as their family tutor. When Pearl's brother Tsi-ying returns for the summer, he is immediately smitten by Ng, under the gaze of his antagonistic classmate, the rich heiress Lee Yuet-wah. Losing heart, Ng moves out to stay with Tsi-ying's best friend Wong Ming-sang and his wife and lands a teaching job through his contacts. Perturbed by the jealous wife's insinuation that she and Wong are guilty of adultery, Ng storms out in tears. Convinced by Wong's solemn oath, Tsi-ying searches for the runaway girl and is hit by a car in his dither. In no time, Lee is taken home to Singapore by her father, believing that Tsi-ying is suffering a crippling injury, a lie fabricated by Pearl. A distraught Ng rushes to his side, comforted by his heartfelt remorse. (Synopsis based on visual audiomaterials) Videocassette. 1 videocassette (VHS) (86 min.) : sd., b&w ; 1/2 in.
