Micachu's Shivering 'Jackie' Score Gives Nuance to the Woman's Gaze
It’s hard to capture the emotions and thoughts of a character just from a few shots, but Oscar-nominee composer Micachu's haunting melodies prove otherwise in 'Jackie'.

After facing the wrath of his wife, Ho decides to get revenge and sends junior assessor Yau Ho Kay to investigate Hui's income.
