Time stands still in a little-known corner on the western tip of Singapore where stars like Rui En, Alien Huang and Bobby Tonelli are filming Ch 8 blockbuster Joys of Life.
Hot wheels
Rui En stars as a tragic bride and adopted daughter who’s forced to marry a stranger to pay off her dad’s debts. The other stars of the show are gorgeous vintage wheels such as this fully-functioning Volkswagen Beetle. According to the producers, the cool rides are rental from Malaysia which, by the way, looms just beyond this set, past the Tuas checkpoint.

Bobby Tonelli, here with Andie Chen and Alien Huang, plays a Brit who falls in love with the prettiest help in his household, Rui En. “My Character learns to speak the language fluently for his girl’s sake, but the Mandarin dialogue was tough for me,” he admits.
