In 2005, Edward Harrison Norton came to China to film "The Painted Veil". He stayed for more than 3 months in total. He never forgot the acting skills of his cooperating Hong Kong actor Anthony Perry: "His performance is extremely deep. I admire him very much. I can’t do this performance."

After Anthony Perry and Edward Harrison Norton played opponents, he said with a smile that Norton was really nervous. Anthony Perry even said: "I'm considered crazy, but he is better than me. When I acted with him, I realized that he was already nervous to the point of horror!"
