A Shaw Bros film?

Looks pretty close to her hair styling in The Flower Girl (1951)

'Flower Girl', 'Barber Takes a Wife', 'Bright Day', and 'Storm Over the Yangtze River' were recently restored and shown at the Hong Kong International Film Festival. Could these be the films that Criterion is releasing?

Maybe a stretch, but I took a look on letterboxd and someone was "subbing" Flower Girl in January...
