    Why do I feel that Hopkins's play Fatty Xi has a funny energy from the inside out, silly and cute, especially the plot setting at the beginning has a spoof style~ Scarlett is so good-looking Ah, prettier than Janet Lee was back then.

    I didn't see that it was Hopkins, and there were too many scenes with my wife.
