The 53rd Golden Horse Award will take place tonight in Taipei.

MAD's actress Kam Yin Ling, director Wong Chun, screen writer Florence Chan Cho Hang yesterday held a media tea in Taipei.

Kam Yin Ling in the film played a mother who erupted into madness withou reason. Her exhausting yet explosive acting earned her the Golden Horse Best Supporting Actress nomination. Tsang Chi Wai worked with director Wong Chun before and appreciated his talent. Thus when Wong Chun asked him to be in another flm, Chi Wai not only showed his support for no charge but also asked Kam Yin Ling and Yue Man Lok to perform for the director. Kam Yin Ling said that she has been friends with Tsang Chi Wai for over a decade. She agreed when he asked. Yet when she first met the director she was surprised by how young he was. In the end his work wholeheartedly won her over.

Kam Yin Ling had many fights with Yue Man Lok in the film. She revealed that in the film she hit Yue Man Lok for real. "When I worked with Chow Yun Fat on the film LOVE UNTO WASTE (DEI HA CHING), Chow Yun Fat slapped me too. Chow Yun Fat's serious slap made me see stars and dizzy. I performed that scene very well because real emotions flowed."
