Cepat Jalan (quick march) is a prequel of Hentak Kaki (marching on the spot). A full-length feature film script has been written and here is the concept trailer:
You get the gist of the story... the good old Warrant Officer Lee Teck Hong before his knee injury.
In Cepat Jalan, the old school disciplinarian Encik Lee finds himself out of sync with an army that is transforming into a gentler and kinder doctrine. That runs him into many challenges with the Establishment. More on those challenges when we make the film proper.
The trailer originally had the happy-go-lucky Staff Sergeant Raj, but Muru (the actor) could not be cast because he was recuperating after a surgery.
*****
Here is the motley crew for the trailer at SP Jain Business School campus at Hyderabad Road at Hort Park, Singapore. Thank you for allowing us to use your premises. It is one of the few places in Singapore that retains the old British barrack feel.
Quite a lot of effort was put into the old SAF uniforms to give it the nostalgic 1980s feel. For that, we are thankful to find them from Mr Alvin Lee, a collector of army stuff .
