Reviewed by: Stephe Date: 01/27/2011 I went into Our Sister Hedy prepared to drool over Julie Yeh Feng, who I liked in It's Always Spring, and who I'd heard played a temptress to a T in this film, but I was not prepared for the wonderful ensemble acting and involving storytelling. The plot details the romantic efforts of three sisters, played by Muk Hung, Julie Yeh Feng, and Dolly So Fung, and a fourth sister, the title Hedy, played by Jeanette Lin Cui, who is ostensibly content to stay at home and be daddy's little girl while smoothing things out behind the scenes. Maybe I'm a sap for liking this so much, but I really did. This is the first time I'd seen Jeanette Lin Cui (whose only Shaw Bros film was The Golden Buddha), and I instantly liked the long-faced Dolly So Fung. I was really surprised to encounter Tin Ching playing an affable, wholesome guy, after having first seen him as a backstabbing weasel in The Boxer from Shantung, and Peter Chen Ho playing a dour architect, after having previously seen him only in Hong Kong Nocturne, opposite Cheng Pei-pei and Lily Ho. Reviewer Score: 10

Reviewed by: Inner Strength Date: 01/24/2002 Summary: Not bad A great Chinese comedy/drama film about 4 girls (Chinese name means 'Four Daughters'), though obviously copying the 'Little Woman' story, but it is very good. Julie Yeh & Jeanette Lin are very good, classic examples of 2 of the best Chinese actresses in early Chinese films. Unfortunatly the version I saw years ago was in Mandarin (the original language I think) and not understanding Mandarin had to struggle with a few parts in the film trying to understand, but the the things that do make sense are quite funny. Rating: 4/5 (This rating is compared to other movies of the same genre released in the same year.)
