SINGAPORE - To cultivate a sense of kinship between her and her on-screen daughters in Taiwanese family film American Girl, actress Karena Lam spent two weeks before filming hanging out with her young co-stars Caitlin Fang and Lin Pin-tung.
The 43-year-old tells The Straits Times: "I'd make breakfast for them, we'd go bowling and have meals together, chat and listen to music. They called me mum outside of filming too, so we had a really natural chemistry. It didn't feel like acting, we felt like a real family."
