I have found this old film, apparently filmed somewhere around old ShuangJing. You can even see, briefly, JianWai SOHO (with the GuoMao tower still under construction!) and then more and more living quarters of old Beijing.
The song must be Al Bowlly & Jimmy Messene's
"When Thay Man is Dead and Gone" (I wonder what he did)

  • it's a beautiful film. everything in it has been romanticized by the old-movie like pictures and songs as well. So unique, and interesting.

  • I guess he was being "ironic".

  • HaHA, filmed around "old shuangjing." So, early 2008 is old?

  • This IS Al Bowlly. It was recorded less than two weeks before his death.

    This was written by Irving Berlin. By cruel coincidence, the first recording that Al made was also written by Irving Berlin!
