This final blog on fan videos has a little bit of everything. There is a radio interview with Leslie provided with appropriate illustrations by a fan. An Anthony Wong Yiu Ming song is turned into a fan tribute to Leslie by way of Saint-Exupery. A Japanese fan created cartoons depicting many of Leslie's greatest roles and stage performances, featuring a fan in a very special role. And finally, to end this series on fan videos, a beautiful tribute video in which a fan not only edited the video, but also recorded the song for it.
English-speaking fans prize the interviews that Leslie gave in English. In support of a Mainland Chinese film, A Time to Remember, in which Leslie played a Communist revolutionary during the Guomindang regime in China, he gave a rare radio interview that, exceptionally, was in English. A fan from England, Jackie, took a recording of this interview and added appropriate photos and video to illustrate Leslie's words.
Video: http://youtu.be/dTufqVxY0YY Anthony Wong Yiu Ming recorded a song, "The Little Prince". A fan created a video that was illustrated with both pictures from an illustrated version of Antoine de Saint-Exupery's classic by the same name and images of Leslie Cheung. For many fans, Leslie is their "little prince".
Video: http://youtu.be/J-dIo7rvgAs A fan, who appears to hail from Japan, has created two highly inventive and possibly unique videos illustrated with hand-drawn cartoons featuring Leslie Cheung and a toddler who appears to be a stand-in for a female fan (the artist?). These are among the most delightful works of fan art and display tremendous creativity. They are a fitting tribute to an artist the calibre of Leslie.
Finally, a touching tribute by a fan who not only created the video, but also sang the song featured in it. For many fans the expression, "Leslie Forever," that frames the video window perfectly describes how they feel about Leslie, even eight years after he has left us.
