Pretty Girl (1987) Titles

Couldn't find a source of the english title "Pretty Girl" or the current chinese title 紅粉情佳人, but there's a Mei Ah laserdisc with the title 紅粉俏佳人. I guess 俏 was confused with 情 and Pretty Girl sounds like a rough translation of that title.

The Taiwan title should be 芳草碧連天, according Taiwan poster and Golden Horse Arward information. It can be watched online and the on-screen title is "Love Is Grown with Flower". According Golden Horse website, the first english title might have been "Flowers of Paradise", but I couldn't find a visual proof.

So if nobody objects, I will soon change the titles like this:

Main titles:
芳草碧連天
Love Is Grown with Flower

Aliases:
紅粉俏佳人
Pretty Girl
Flower Love
Flowers of Paradise

Agreed. I raised this issue way back when I joined, but I never got around to it: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=55408#p89883
I don't have anything on Pretty Girl either. Maybe STSH remembers the source for that title, since it appears he was the one who added the entry.

Done.

I kept the title Pretty Girl as an Alias, but I wouldn't mind if someone else deletes it :)

Well done, chaps. I added the title from a video seen in a long-gone video shop, where I rented the movie nearly 2 decades ago. The title was on the video cover.
