Kelly & Leon Filming "An Empress And The Warriors"

Kelly and Leon Lai have a touching relationship in the movie "An Empress And The Warriors". Kelly felt that the most romantic scene was when both of them took the hot air balloon. Kelly had even revealed that Leon was much more scared of heights than her. She laughed that on the day, she was extremely excited. However, Leon appeared scared and grumbled to complete the filming as soon as possible. Later when both of them were engrossed acting in their roles, Leon was more relaxed and said that it was fun.

In the movie, Kelly plays the princess and had to take over the throne as the king was killed in a war. The princess later was ambushed in the forest and had to escape with injuries. Fortunately, she was rescued by Leon. To film this scene where they first met, Kelly had to roll many times on the grass patch and she nearly ate the leaves that got to her mouth. The director wanted her to roll in a beautiful way. Kelly found that it was not easy as it required technique and she need to be accurate on how she land. She had once rolled down the slope with leaves covering her head and her face was covered by her hair. The director reminded her not to appear ugly as she would frighten Leon away!
