There were two truly beautiful women in film, Anna May Wong and Louise Brooks, in that order. Ms. Wong is breathtaking and ethereal................ this video captures her appeal which is timeless. Thank you for posting it.
I love the memory of Anna Mae Wong. I've been married to a Chinese woman for 38 years now. I admire the Chinese people I know--- manners, brains, striving for education, concentration on family.... Beautiful women..I'm lucky to have had such close contact with Chinese culture. My brother in law says I'm 51% Chinese myself...
According to her autobiography Anna May went to Europe during the mid 1930s to make movies because shewas disappointed in not getting the movies she wanted. Like the lead part in the Great Earth. Louise Brooks did the same thing in the late 1920's.
beauté et grand charme de cette actrice....je cherche à approfondir qui elle était ! son parcours....c'est un personnage de rêve actuellement, un peu mythique....De plus je m'intéresse aux débuts du ciné aux USA...
Wow... I always loved this song by Billie Holiday but had no idea it had been composed for the magnificent Miss Wong. Now that I know it makes perfect sense.
Such a beauty could only inspire such a beautiful song.

The moment she spoke on screen she captured your full attention. If you were male that wasn't hard to keep.

That's right Eric Maschwitz wrote it for her. Such a cool story and such a beautiful, talented and remarkable woman.

We removed a racist comment but could not change their bad star rating. Anna lovers, make sure to leave a star rating. Thanks

Do you really mean that this song"These foolish things" was written for her. Excellent actress, as well as the songwriter and Rod...

Lyrics were crafted by the emotion of her lover Eric having lost her for the last time. 0:33 in the video is where their last stroll took place.
