The 43rd Hong Kong Film Awards Ceremony would be held on April
27th, and the competition for Best Supporting Actor and Actress this
year has been fierce. The 10 nominated actors came from 6 films, two of
which were topical films with a box office of more than HK$ 100 million.
They included THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK)'s Tommy Chu Pak Hong, Paul
Chun Pui, Rachel Leung Yung Ting and Rosa Velasco (Wai Law Sha);
TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN (GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAI SING)'s
Louis Koo Tin Lok and Philip Ng Wan Lung. The other 4 people are ALL SHALL
BE WELL (CHUNG GUM YI HAU)'s Maggie Li Linlin, PAPA's Jo Koo (Kok Cho Lam),
LOVE LIES (NGOR TAM DIK NA CHEUNG LUEN OI)'s Stephy Tang Lai
Yan and MONTAGES OF A MODERN MOTHERHOOD (FU DUK BUT)'s Siuyea Lo Chun
Yip. Chu Pak Hong and Kok Cho Lam took the lead as they won the 2024 Hong
Kong Film Directors' Guild Annual Awards for Best Supporting Actor and
Actress. Having been in the film for more than 50 years, Li Linlin would
vie for the first time for supporting actress.
The Hong Kong Film Awards yesterday distributed special photos
of the Best Supporting Actor and Actress nominees. Among the 5 Best
Supporting Actor candidates, Paul Chun Pui had the most seniority and
has won the 6th and 13th Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actor.
This time he received his seventh nomination for this award as THE LAST
DANCE (POR. DEI YUK)'s bone master. His sentimental sighing and
lamenting at his old friend's altar left a deep impression on the
audience, and he had hope to win his 3rd Supporting Actor. In the same film,
Tommy Chu Pak Hong played a Namo master who inherited his father's
mantle, and won the Best Supporting Actor at the Directors' Guild Awards
earlier. He admitted that he hoped to win another award at the Hong
Kong Film Awards.
Best Actor Louis Koo Tin Lok has twice been nominated for Best
Supporting Actor. This time with TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN
(GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAI SING)'s Tornado competed for this award again.
Who knows whether he would be like his character n the film and swept
across all of his enemies in one night. With a prominent performance
as the villain "Wong Gau" in the same film, Philip Ng Wan Lung wore
sunglasses and long curly black hair, had an arrogant and boastful
personality and also the "golden bell cover iron cloth shirt" hard
qigong. He made the audience grit their teeth. Ng Wan Lung has changed
from the former "stiff guy" into "Hong Kong version of Joker", and his
acting skills were impressive. He said, "I came from a martial arts
actor and action director background. I never thought that my first
Hong Kong Film Award nomination would come from acting. I am really
pleasantly surprised." In addition, Siuyea Lo Chun Yip in MONTAGES OF A
MODERN MOTHERHOOD (FU DUK BUT) played a novice father, and his natural
and life-like interpretation placed him among one of the top five.
Among the top five for Best Supporting Actress, Maggie Li Linlin
have the most acting experience. Making a comeback after a long
absence, she played an elderly lesbian in ALL SHALL BE WELL (CHUNG GUM
YI HAU) and composed a love song with her partner Patra Au Ga Man. The
role was completely different from the real life of Li Linlin, who has
been married to her husband John Chiang Dai Wai for more than half a
century and have children and grandchildren. However her interpretation
was natural and sincere. Li Linlin has been in the film industry for
more than 50 years, and was nominated for the 18th Asian Film Awards
and the Hong Kong FIlm Awards Best Supporting Actress for the first
time.
Rachel Leung Yung Ting and Rosa Velasco (Wai Law Sha) are
nominated for Best Supporting Actress with THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI
YUK). The former won the award last year, and this time she strove to
repeat. In the film Wai Law Sha plays a mother who was reluctant to
bury her son and hoped to resurrect him with future technology.
Witnessing the funeral director and the Namo master embalming her son's
body, her tears welled up and touched the audience. Jo Koo (Kok Cho
Lam) played the mother who was killed by her schizophrenic son in PAPA,
In one scene in the film she took her husband back to her hometown to
meet her parents. Not proficient in Hakka, Kok Cho Lam learned to speak
this dialect in just a few days and showed her knack for language.
Early last month she was selected for the "Directors' Guild Award of the
Year" for Best Supporting Actress. Stephy Tang Lai Yan in LOVE LIES
(NGOR TAM DIK NA CHEUNG LUEN OI) turned into a romance scam master and
showed off her sexy image. Her performance was eye-catching, and put
her among the top five supporting actress nominees.
Fala Chen gladly plays a mad character for her acting bug
Fala Chen praises Nick Cheung for setting off sparks in their collaboration
Fala Chen has a pair of young children so she has no intention to work on a television series
Fala Chen often posts sweet photos with her husband
Fala Chen says that her appearance in the film frightens her mother courtesy of mingpao.com
The 43 year old Fala Chen after leaving the TVB nest switched
her runway to develop a film career. Then she settled in the U.S. and
focused on Hollywood, as well as having a pair of children with her
husband. Earlier she returned to Hong Kong film and starred in the Nick
Cheung Ka Fai written, directed and starred new film PEG O' MY HEART
(SHOOK MUNG) is in release. In the film Fala and Ka Fai played a loving
couple who make a wrong choice due to an investment failure, which
causes the relationship between the two to change dramatically and their
lives also fall into a nightmare. Because of the role, Fala hovered
between gloom and depression in every scene. When she went crazy, she
even tried to jump off the building, running through the streets and
screaming until she was hoarse. Her acting bug got its fill. She even
said that it was the first time she lost weight for the role. PEG O' MY
HEART opened on March 27th, as of April 1st it has accumulated over HK$
4 million at the box office. Cheung Ka Fai has been promoting hard,
between Friday (the 4th) and Sunday he and Terrance Lau Chun Him visited
over 30 audience appreciation screenings.
Fala praised his co-star Cheung Ka Fai for his ability to act
and direct, so that the actor knew exactly what he wanted. She said,
"Ka Fai's idea is very clear to us, like accurately telling the
relationship between the couple in our film then letting me perform
freely. Because I trust him as a director, basically I don't have to
rehearse or use another method to act." When Fala and Terrance Lau
Chun Him had scenes together, Ka Fai would explain as the director.
Because Ka Fai started as an actor, he would understand the problems
the actors faced. Fala thought that it was different from the
feeling of working with other directors before, and the chemistry
was also greater.
Fala had to put down her beauty to play a "mad woman", she
joked: "Actually I'm playing myself. I don't know why I've always given
people a mild-mannered, girl next door impression. I hope that the role
can be a little bigger leeway, with sweetness and madness. Each role
has its own depth and layer." Fala admitted that she was afraid of
playing hysterically crazy roles, so she tried to avoid them in the
film and let her emotions start to radiate naturally from the character.
Fala also deliberately strengthened her makeup. She said, "Ka Fai often
comes to see my makeup, I am not afraid myself; but my family would be
scared when they see it. Maybe I don't make this type of movie often, I
showed my mother my make up photos and her reaction was so painful. She
asked why was I like this? My husband didn't react much when he saw it,
and the children were too little. I don't dare to show them as I am
afraid they would have nightmares."
Fala revealed that he and Cheung Ka Fai in order to play their
roles well both lost 10 pounds. She lost weight for the first time for
the role, which she joked was more tragic than the character. She said,
"The director asked me to lose five or six pounds, but the filming was
around Christmas. I could only watch my family have Christmas feast.
In addition Ka Fai and I first filmed the couple at happier times,
(Claudie) Chung Chun (PEG O' MY HEART producer) often bought a lot of
food to the set. We kept eating on the set. After the Christmas
holiday we continue the shoot, I just went to France on vacation and
luckily I met the goal. We only filmed the hard part around Christmas.
I felt that I was even more tragic than the movie character."
Having directed short films, Fala admitted that she still had a
director dream to challenge Westerns that few Chinese people would
shoot. She said, "If I can start production on a Western film, I may
not act in it because I have to concentrate on directing and researching
scripts. I am not as amazing as Ka Fai, directing and acting at the
same time." Would she have a chance to act in TV dramas again? Fala
said that because the children are still young, she usually would not
want to leave them for too long when she would go out for work.
Shooting TV dramas requires a long time, which might have certain
difficulties for her. She said, "Wait until the children get a little
older, I hope to follow the example of other foreign stars in the
future. For example Nicole Kidman came to Hong Kong for a drama
before, and the crew arranged for her to bring her children with her."
Fala praised this type of arrangement as allowing the actors to have one
less concern and be more able to concentrate on the performance.

short cab ride. A few day later, the two men cross paths again. Choi
has been ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation due to his
alleged involvement in reckless driving, and Man is assigned to his
case. Man quickly realizes that Choi struggles to differentiate
between dreams and reality. He constantly sees "devils". Awake or
not, his mind can never rest; his body continues to waste away. As
hopeless as Choi's condition seems, Man is determined to get to the
bottom of his story. As Choi's story unfolds, Man begins to
experience disturbing and perplexing dreams. These dreams are vivid
and unsettling. The deeper Man delves into Choi's past, the more

endangering anyone who sets foot in his taxi. One passenger is
psychiatrist Dr Man, who survives the taxi ride and offers to help
Choi. The offer is refused, but Choi later becomes Dr Man's
involuntary patient after a particularly egregious night of driving.
Dr Man has his own personal issues: his motto is "I think a doctor
should do more than prescribe meds," which means a doctor should
also investigate his patients secretly in defiance of common sense
and hospital protocol. In a parallel to Choi, Dr Man also has
sleeping issues. He suffers from disturbing dreams of his deceased
mother, which hints at a secret involving his father, and perhaps
some repressed memories.

The late superstar Leslie Cheung Kwok Wing (Gor Gor) passed away
22 years ago, and his close friends and a group of "Gor fans"
spontaneously expressed their reluctance and nostalgia on his death
anniversary. Gor Gor's beloved Daffy Tong Hok Tak (Tong Tong) shared
his photos on social networks, including stills from FAREWELL MY
CONCUBINE and a video of his past MONICA performance. He posted, "Who
can take your place." Yesterday nearly 500 "Gor fans" from the
mainland, Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong visited Po Fook Hill in Sha
Tin to pay respects to Gor Gor. The outside the Mandarin Oriental Hotel
at Central has also become a sea of flowers, and "Gor fans" presented
flowers to miss their idols.
Manager Chan Suk Fan (Mrs. Chan) yesterday with Gor Gor's friend
Lin Yim Fai, former assistant Kenneth and other fans from all over the
world went to Po Fook Hill in Sha Tin to pay respects. Mrs. Chan
ordered a special "22" heart-shaped floral arrangement composed of
purple roses to symbolize 22 years of staying the same. Gor fans
presented unique floral arrangements, and loyal Japanese fans would come
to Hong Kong in April and September every year to present origami
cranes. Mrs. Chan printed a limited edition commemorative card for the
fans, with Leslie Cheung's classic stage style and autograph printed on
the front, and the lyrics of the song DEAR LESLIE printed on the back.
Mrs. Chan said that next year will be Gor Gor's 70th birthday, and many
fans asked her to hold a commemorative event for "Gor Gor" again. She
called on everyone to give their opinions, and after collecting the
thoughts of Gor fans she hoped to present the most sincere 70th birthday
gift for Gor Gor. Mrs. Chan also revealed that many overseas Gor fans
wanted to organize exhibitions, but she wanted to hold the exhibition
mainly in Hong Kong. Once confirmed she would make the announcement as
soon as possible. In addition many memorial events took place around
the world. The Guizhou fan club chartered a theater to screen FAREWELL
MY CONCUBINE; the Kaohsiung Film Archive would screen Gor Gor's classic
films like NOMAD and ASHES OF TIME this month.
Yesterday, Anita Yuen Wing Yee, Vivian Chow Wai Man, Josie Ho
Chiu Yee, Karen Tong Bo Yu, Kenny Bee (Chung Chun To) and others
remember Gor Gor on social platforms.

Mong Kok Newport Cinema opened for its final day yesterday, and
the Hong Kong Film Awards Best New Performer nominated deaf actor Marco
Ng Tsz Ho joined the movie THE WAY WE TALK (HONG NGOR GUM TIN JUM MOR
SUET)'s team including director Adam Wong Sau Ping, Neo Yau Hawk Sau,
and child actor Cheng Chun Hei to attend the farewell to the Newport
Cinema audience appreciation screening two nights ago. Wong Sau Ping
said that Newport Cinema was a Mong Kok landmark and thus made the
trip to thank the audience before it closed. He lamented that another
theater would close, proving that the times were very hard. In his
impression, the first time Yau Hawk Sau went to Newport Cinema was
with a female companion to watch LAN KWAI FONG (HEI OI YEH PO) and the
closing of the cinema was regrettable. THE WAY WE TALK's box office
has exceeded HK$ 10 million. Yau Hwak Sau said that each time he has
made a movie his wish was for investors to be able to make their money
back. He hoped that the industry would continue to develop healthily.
He said that if the box office would exceed HK$ 20 million he would
remake girlfriend Jessica Chan Yi Chun's music video to "pay the bill".
The Mong Kok Newport Cinema has been in business for 20 years
but earlier announced its closing. Yesterday was its final day of
operation. THE WAY WE TALK's director Wong Sau Ping with Yau Hawk Sau,
Ng Chi Ho and Cheng Chun Hei two nights ago attended the farewell to
Newport Cinema audience appreciation screening. Wong Sau Ping said
that Newport Cinema was a Mong Kok landmark, thus he made the trip to
thank the audience before its closing. He used to constantly watched
movies at Newport and felt this place was very familiar. "The most
memorable was that BEAST COP (YEH SAU YING GAING) was shot here.
(Anthony) Wong Chau Sun has become the Best Actor with this film."
Wong Sau Ping felt that the rarest part of Newport Cinema was
that viewers could enter the cinema without going through the shopping
center. This characteristic has already become few in Hong Kong,
unfortunately in the end it would still close and prove that the times
were very hard. "I remember my previous movie THE WAY WE KEEP DANCING
(KONG MO PAI 3)'s audience appreciation, at the time cinema circuits
were already closing. Later it came back. I hope that whether is
location would later become a cinema or not, people in every industry
would strengthen themselves." He admitted that now making a movie was
very difficult, but was grateful to see that many viewers were still
very supportive on Hong Kong film and like this era's Hong Kong films.
Yau Hawk Sau said that he has seen one or two movies at Newport
Cinema, as he remembered the first time was watching LAN KWAI FONG with
a girl. Playing Yau Hawk Sau's younger version in THE WAY WE TALK,
Cheng Chun Hei joked, "I didn't even know about this Newport Cinema,
my knowledge isn't deep." Has he seen LAN KWAI FONG? He joked, "I
haven't, I like to go to sleep early." Has he invited his classmates
to watch his film THE WAY WE TALK? Cheng Chun Hei said that the school
has chartered shows for students to watch. His classmates after
watching praised the film as entertaining. When he attended certain
events and fans screamed his name, he felt incredible.
THE WAY WE TALK's box office has exceeded HK$ 10 million.
Yau Hawk Sau said that each time he made a movie his wish was for the
investors to be able to make money. Although he did not know whether
the film has done it, he hoped that it would. "This film industry
could continue to have healthy development, in particular investors
have the intention to invest in such subjects. I want to make a
return and even hope that the film could be brought to the mainland
and other places overseas releases, and get in touch with even more
viewers." He knew that THE WAY WE TALK has had a lot of responses in
the mainland and decent reviews. He joked that if the film would
surpass HK$ 20 million at the box office he would remake his girlfriend
Chan Yin Chun's music video to "pay the bill".
Marco said that he has never been to watch a movie at Newport
Cinema before, but he would often pass by. Regarding the closure of
another theater, he bluntly said that he felt bad and thought that no
place could replace the shocking sound effect of the theater. He also
revealed that when he was in elementary school, he tried to go to the
theater alone after school, but actually ran into his homeroom teacher
and was later given detention for punishment. However he also
understood that the teacher's original intention was also out of concern
for his safety. As THE WAY WE TALK's box office approached HK$ 12
million, Ng Chi Ho danced during the audience appreciation event to
"pay he bill". He joked that he only did two simple moves, but he
would dance again when the box office would exceeded 24 million. He
even suggested for director Wong Sau Ping dance with him. Wong Sau
Ping shook his head and said that he was the least talented in dancing.
He only knew how to make dance movies.

Rebecca Zhu, Nick Cheung and Terrance Lau hope the PEG O' MY HEART box office would keep climbing courtesy of mingpao.com
The Nick Cheung Ka Fai written, directed and starred new film PEG O'
MY HEART (SHOOK MUNG) has become the box office champion for four
consecutive days since its release, and its box office has exceeded HK$
3.3 million as of the day before yesterday. Over the past weekend
holiday, Ka Fai led the film's actors Terrance Lau Chun Him, Rebecca Zhu
Chen Li, Brian Lee Hoi Yin, Natalie Hsu (Hui Yan Yi), Ben Yuen Fu Wah,
Yuen Yee Man and others attended over audience appreciation shows,
interacted and shared with the live audience, and even said that they
would contact "Choi Sun Keung" and "Dr. Man" to appear at the cinemas
as soon as possible. The Ka Fai performed film end credit song I WILL
NEVER SLEEP AGAIN has also attracted attention, loyal fans assisted
him with his solo concert efforts and took the initiative to check the
Hong Kong Coliseum schedule for him!
The box office figures of PEG O' MY HEART have reached HK$
3,370,754 as of the day before yesterday. Last weekend Ka Fai led the
cast to thank the audiences and share their impressions with the
audience up close. Seeing the audience's enthusiastic reaction, Ah
Him generously gave away benefits and gave warm hugs to lucky fans.
During this period some Ka Fai fans held up signs to confess to him:
"Diamonds and gold are not as sincere and true as me to Ka Fai." Ka Fai
was so pleased that he stepped forward to shake their hands and thank
them.
Cheung Ka Fai said that the audience was engaged in watching the
film, which was the picture they wanted to see the most. "One viewer
watched it twice and overcame the fear of watching a horror film; There
was also a couple, the woman left after watching it for a few minutes
because she was scared and the boyfriend who watched the whole film made
fun of her; there were also viewers who are nervous that they spilled
their popcorn, all of which were engaged reactions. This movie is not a
scary ghost movie. Only the subject matter has frightening elements,
but the degree is not high. I don't want everyone to be frightened and
resist watching this kind of movie." He said that he wanted more
audiences to enter the theater and see their dedication and sincerity in
making this movie. He was very happy to see that some viewers broke
through themselves and bought tickets to watch it twice to overcome
their demons.
Speaking of the interactive film promotion online was well
received and made the role of "Choi Sun Keung" popular. Before the
film was released it has already been talked about, as everyone were
looking forward to the appearance of "Choi Sun Keng" and "Dr. Man" (the
characters of Ka Fai and Lau Chun Him). Ka Fai and Ah Him announced
that they have summoned the "two" to appear through relevant people.
The movie has attracted much attention, and he Ka Fai performed
end credit song I CAN NEVER FALL ASLEEP has also been burned into
everyone's brains. Loyal fans even took the initiative to check the
Hong Kong Coliseum schedule for Ka Fai, and found that June still had 9
days available on the schedule. They suggested for Ka Fai to hold a
concert, and Zhu Chenli was the first to raise her hand in agreement.
Ka Fai said seriously, "I can give it a try, then I should probably
practice singing regularly. However My throat have been singing too
much lately and have calluses, I need to rest first before I make
plans."
