Helena Law Lan appeared on Luisa Lai Chi San's TELLING MARIA 2. Did people yell at her when she played villains? She remembered once when she passed a cinema, a 30 something year old woman with a child saw her and immediately yelled "Slut"! However she never minded playing villains. She did not feel that she was a star but an actress. Actresses had to bring life to their characters.
For the television series THE RETURN OF THE CONDOR HEROES (SUN DIU HUP NUI), she decided to take the role to challenge her own abilities because the script had a line, "Her laughter is piercing." Sh tried to perform a desolate yet haunting laughter. Later when she returned home her mother yelled at her, "Is TVB out of people? She is so ugly yet you are willing to play her!"
