MISCELLANEOUS * (2025/12/24) A GUILTY CONSCIENCE (DUK SIT DAI JONG) director Jack Ng Wai Lun led its original cast members Dayo Wong Tze Wah, Louise Wong Dan Nei, Renci Yeung Sze Wing, Dee Ho Kai Wah and Gardner Tse Kwan Ho, and added Sammi Cheng Sau Man, COLLAR member Sumling Li and Mandy Tam Man Huen to cook up the Year of the Horse Lunar New Year film NIGHT KING (YEH WONG). The location switched from the courtroom to the glamorous Hong Kong night club of the past in an acting and appearance battle. Wong Tze Wah and Cheng Sau Man after 11 years collaborated again as a divorced couple, yesterday the NIGHT KING actors were unveiled for the first time. Ng Wai Lun revealed that the opportunity for making NIGHT KING came from when he was asked whether he would make a sequel at A GUILTY CONSCIENCE's box office celebration, he declined on the spot. Seeing all the beautiful actresses on hand though, he saw an idea flashed in his mind. He then blurred out that if he would make a movie it would be about a night club. Everyone went into an uproar as soon as they heard the words "night club". The Year of the Horse Lunar New Year film would also include the Philip Yung Tsz Kwong directed, Edan Lui Cheuk On and Chung Suet Ying starred GUM DOR BO. In the middle of this year Wong Tze Wah nd Cheng Sau Man have been rumored to star in the Ng Wai Lun directed new film, but the confidentiality were done to its maximum on the project. It has only been revealed that it would be a comedy. Last night NIGHT KING's poster and teaser were released. Aside from A GUILTY CONSCIENCE's Wong Tze Wah, Wong Dan Nei, Liew Chi Yu, Yeung Sze Wing, Ho Kai Wah and Tse Kwan Ho, Cheng Sau Man, COLLAR member Sumling Li and Mandy Tam Man Huen joined the cast. Director Ng Wai Lun explained how NIGHT KING came about. "It happened at A GUILTY CONSCIENCE appreciation banquet. At the time when the cast were high from drinking, Renci suddenly asked if I would make A GUILTY CONSCIENCE 2? I immediately answered no, I no longer wanted to make such a serious subject again. Then I saw everyone at the banquet with so many beauties there, my mind suddenly saw a flash as I blurred out if I would make a movie it would be about a night club! As soon as I said 'night club', everyone immediately went into an uproar and raised their hands in agreement." He said that he had another reason in choosing the subject of night club. "I like to go. In the 80s and 90s East TST was drowning in wine and neon lights, then after 2000 China City closed. In 2012 Club BBOSS and Club Paris also closed, as all the glory became the past. With the decline of the East TST, people who made a living in East TST night spots faced an uncertain future but had no way of going back. How should they react? This is the second reason of making NIGHT KING. The story of East TST back then has a kind of wonderful resonance with Hong Kong now." Wong Tze Wah nd Cheng Sau Man played a divorced couple in the 2014 film TEMPORARY FAMILY (SUT LUEN GUP YEUNG) but did not have many scenes together. They reunited in NIGHT KING and again played a divorced couple. Taking place in 2012, East TST night club manager Brother Foon has a strong team. Mamasan Coco is the best of the best. Liew Chi Yu plays a mamasan who has a way with the clients, under her are the "cherry lips" Sumling Li, drinking game expert Tam Man Huen and sex goddess Yeung Sze Wing; the clients include tycoon Tse Kwan Ho and stock broker Ho Kai Wah. The once glorious night club is bought out. New CEO is Brother Foon's former wife Sister V. She forces Brother Foon and the female employees to transition and business gradually shows signs of life; actually a big corporation is controlling the game behind the scenes, and the night club is at risk at all times. In order to save the club, Brother Foon and Sister V team up and swear to make a final comeback with the ladies and stand firm in East TST. In addition to NIGHT KING, the Philip Yung Tsz Kwong directed, MIRROR member Edan Lui Cheuk On, Golden Horse Awards Best Actress Chung Suet Ying and Elaine Jin (Kam Yin Ling) starred GUM DOR BO with guest stars Michael Hui Koon Man and Nina Paw Hee Ching has also been scheduled for a Lunar New Year release. Wrapping up production in November, Yung Tsz Kwong said that he put up half the production budget as he shot while looking for investors. He revealed that the story was related to his late Grandma, who played the same lottery numbers for a long time. When he wrote the script he saw Grandma in the dream. "When I woke up, I actually received a message from a colleague (he bought the ticket for me). He said that I won the lottery, matching 4 numbers for HK$ 640. It was with the numbers Grandma used to play......" He said that he bought offerings for Grandma with the prize, as it happened during the Lunar July. * (2025/12/23) The movie BACK TO THE PAST (CHUM CHUN GEI) held a promotional launch ceremony at Ngong Ping 360 yesterday with Louis Koo Tin Lok (Goo Jai), Raymond Lam Fung, Jessica Hester Hsuan (Suen Huen), Sonija Kwok Sin Nei, Joyce Tang Lai Ming, Michael Miu Kiu Wai (Sam Gor), Timmy Hung Tin Ming, Eric Tsui Ho Cheong (Fat Cheong), Ng Wing Sze and director Lai Chun Lung in attendance, attracting hundreds of tourists and fans to watch. Goo Jai and Lam Fung's "master and apprentice" appearance was very popular. Lam Fung said that making BACK TO THE PAST with Koo Tin Lok after 20 years, he felt that they both became more mature on and off screen. "Our relationship in the film would have a perfect explanation." When Suen Huen, Kwok Sin Nei and Tang Lai Ming were on the same stage, the audience was in an uproar and evoked a lot of memories. The three of them were so more excited that they hug each other. Kwok Sin Nei said with a smile that after more than 20 years, she has changed from a "girl version of Kam Ching" to a "young woman version of Kam Ching". Suen Huen and Kwok Sin Nei hoped that BACK TO THE PAST would make a sequel and add more women's and family scenes. They joked that they would not mind Goo Jai "marrying" Tang Lai Ming to enjoy the blessings. From the TV version to the movie version, BACK TO THE PAST was promoted for the first time after 24 years. Goo Jai said that he was happy to see everyone relive the TV series, and it has been 6 years since the filming of the movie version everyone was really happy to get together again. He laughed and said that watching the movie clips to promote the movie brought back a lot of memories every day. Would he want TVB To air A STEP INTO THE PAST again? He pointed out that it would be very convenient for audiences to watch dramas and movies online, and there would be no need to be limited by TV time slots. Lam Fung also admitted that it also brought back a lot of memories, because he has not promoted with so many actors who have known each other for more than 20 years. He was also looking forward to collaborating with elder Sam Gor, even if the Sam Gor played "Ken" assassinated him in the film he would not mind. Speaking of people on the internet saw through this as "Jing Ke assassinates King of Qin", Lam Fung admitted that this was a "gimmick". He also pointed out that the role was titled "Ken Gor" for a different meaning. Goo Jai asked the audience to go to the cinema and watch the movie. Sam Gor laughed and said that he was wrongfully "imprisoned" 20 years ago and did not appear, and he was honored to participate in the performance at the invitation of Goo Jai. The movie broke the "urban legend" and would be released on New Year's Eve, Goo Jai said that he would promote it in Beijing and Guangzhou. He would even attend the count down to New Year's Eve in Guangzhou. Lam Fung also said that the would attend a countdown for the first time to promote a film. Speaking of the box office goal, Goo Jai bluntly said that he was confident, but did not have a specific goal. Would he want to break the box office record of WARRIORS OF FUTURE (MING YUT JIN GEI)? He said that he has already done his best when the movie was finished, the box office would depend on the audience's support. Of course the more the better, but he also lamented that the global box office. He hoped that the audience would come to the theater to support it. This time evokes memories of the audience, would he think that this movie would be able to save the market? He said, "It is useless to save it once, only a long term rescue would be useful. The audience would still need to come and support it." Goo Jai pointed out that after the movie release, he would go to theaters to thank the audience. There would be a special audience cosplay screening, as he hoped to make it like a party that would span different eras. When asked if he would sing "The Highest Destiny" with Lam Fung to distribute benefits? He laughed and said that Lam Fung could sing solo, or for Sam Gor to sing it would be the most special. Sam Gor laughed and said, "I can, I learned to sing from Ah Fung!" Speaking of Goo Jai's transitional housing visit on winter solstice to have poon choi with the victims of Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po, Goo Jai said that he did not want to talk more about it. Would he charter a screening to comfort the victims? Goo Jai emphasized that this would require long-term care to work, and he hoped to do it as low- key as possible. Suen Huen, Kwok Sin Nei and Tan Lai Ming reunited after a long absence for six years, hugged each other excitedly and felt that it took them too long to reunite. Suen Huen said that she felt even happier to make a movie version after more than 20 years, as it would be a childhood memory for the audience. The three of them were praised for freezing their age, they looked at each other and joked that they were just slowing down aging and trying to "stay fresh". Suen Huen praised Tang Lai Ming for being the best maintained, and Kwok Sin Nei admitted that maintenance has been the most difficult after having a child. Kwok Sin Nei recalled that when she was filming the TV version, she was not familiar with Suen Huen and Tang Lai Ming so she was very afraid. However when making the movie they were already like old friends. Tang Lai Ming was still happy because the filming of "LO AND BEHOLD" needed to be accommodated, saying that if the sequel would be filmed she would be willing to check her schedule again. Suen Huen laughed and said that with a good box office they could make another, because the subject matter still had a lot of room for development. The three revealed that their BACK TO THE STEP participation was completely due to Koo Tin Lok's personal invitation. During the shoot he had many jobs, so he was tense and worn on the set. They did not dare to say more but they did not feel that they have had their fill. The three suggested that the sequel should add more women's dramas and family scenes, and Suen Huen and Kwok Sin Nei would not mind that Goo Jai "married" Tang Lai Ming and enjoyed the blessings. In addition Suen Huen previously posted a hand-holding photo on the Internet, Kwok Sin Nei and Tang Lai Ming congratulated her on the spot when they learned about it. Suen Huen hurriedly clarified that the other party was a female friend, emphasizing that she was still single and welcomed suitors. Suen Huen with THE QUEEN OF CASTLE would compete with THE QUEEN OF NEWS 2's Charmaine Sheh Sze Man, Suen Huen pointed out that the other nominees were also very good. She has also watched DID.12. Would the release of BACK To THE PAST help her win awards? She pointed out that she might not be able to attend the award ceremony due to work. She would leave the award to fate, as she did not make dramas for awards and really enjoyed the process. Yet after winning once she would not mind winning a second time. Kwok Sin Nei joked, "Even if you won't be there you can still win! Isn't it supposed to be fair?" Suen Huen expressed online after the Tai Po Wang Fuk Court fire that she could foster some small animals and revealed that she has received messages asking for help. "Now I am still checking to see if anyone needs help." Suen Huen's uncle Robert Chua Wah Peng was caught in a fur controversy, but she was unwilling to comment. "Everyone have the freedom to do what they like, you can't force others." In addition, Kwok Sin Nei's former rumored boyfriend Michael Tao Dai Yu earlier got married again. She graciously responded, "Congratulations!" Rising in popularity in Japan due to the WALLED CITY fever, Lam Fung would perform a concert in Tokyo at the end of the month. Recently in an interview there he revealed that the TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN sequel would start production in March next year. In order for the action scenes to be even more fiery, he has already accepted a "special mission" to train for two months! He happily said, "Seeing TWILIGHT starting a fever, the cast and the crew still feel it is incredible." Speaking of the enthusiastic welcome from the fans there while promoting, he admitted that he was moved. "Although the itinerary was very busy, the crew, the director and the actor all had take out ramen that was hot and delicious. It was very memorable for me." Fans were the most concerned with when would the sequel start production. He revealed that it would be in March next year. Although he kept the story confidential, he said that he had to accept a series of training two months before the production. The more he talked the more excited he got. "Next month we would be in position for action director Kenji Tanigaki's training. doubling the time of the previous installment. I believe the action scene and the demand would definitely be more fierce." He also revealed that at first at the director's request he got a crew cut to play the role, which was different from the original comic book's long hair look. Some Japanese fans said that his appearance resembled the cartoon character CHIIKAWA, he felt honored but suspected that he was not as cute. Speaking of his concert in Japan, he revealed that he has invited Tony Wu Tsz Tung to be his guest. He would perform the Japanese version of Leslie Cheung Kwok Wing's hit MONICA as a surprise for the Japanese fans. He pointed out that the "Four Sons of the Walled City" were all good brothers on and off screen. They even started a "Wounded Warriors of the Walled City" group. Earlier when Terrance Lau Chun Him announced his marriage, he also wished him well in the group. Before he would jump into work next month, earlier he took time to visit Hokkaido with his wife and daughter. * (2025/12/23) After "Goddess of Intellectual Youth" Angela Yuen Lai Lam became an artist under Louis Koo Tin Lok, she has had film offers one after another. Recently she revealed on social networks that she has made a film that moved her, and in the process she even added a "father" Cheung Ka Nin (Tai Bo). She said, "Meeting a group of like-minded friends and adding a father are one of the most fulfilling and satisfying things for me in the second half of the year." She said that in the past three years, she has filmed a lot of things in one go and has accumulated a lot of gains and feelings on the creative journey. "In today's Hong Kong film climate where resources restricted imagination and quick decisions seemed to be the order of the day, creators who value 'the process' so much exist. I really really really am moved by and cherish slowly things like reading the script, slowly experience it, slowing interacting the original intentions of creators, slowly building the character the story world." She even established her belief in performance, "You have to first move yourself before being able to move the audience." * (2025/12/23) Carlos Chan Ka Lok and Fish Liew Chi Yu recently appeared in the finale of the theme program "Interview Like Me" of the Emperor Motion Picture "SOMEONE LIKE ME (JEUNG NGOR JEH YEUNG DIK OI CHING)" and interviewed two directors Anselm Chen Mou Yin and Jack Ng Wai Lun. Among them Ng Wai Lun even pointed out to Liew Chi Yu, "You are so fragile! Yet it is precisely this fragility that makes you very suitable for acting!" He also said that because of her emotional ups and downs, it has been able to help her switch on camera in an instant. He praised her acting skill progress, "She is a very diligent actor, and she will be ready to act before hand. Yet as the cameras roll, when she enters the role she has the right to suddenly overturn her own ideas, and follows her instincts to act. Actually I like that very much." Chan Mou Yin ridiculed Chan Ka Lok, "He looks so annoying sometimes, he looks weary of the world!" He revealed that he has received calls from Ka Lok in the middle of the night to ask for advice, and knew that he was depressed from losing weight for the role. Ka Lok joked that he had a "tendency to be abused" and said to Chan Mou Yin, "If you don't stab me a few time, I wouldn't be at ease!" * (2025/12/21) Johnnie To Kei Fung and Herman Yau Lai To yesterday attended the 19th Fresh Wave International Short Film Local Competition Award presentations. The Fresh Wace Film Festival Co. Ltd. chair To Kei Fung said before presenting the "Fresh Wave Award" to the director of "28", Erica Kwok Chung Yee, he said that the financial pressure was very high. He especially thanked Louis Koo Tin Lok for his secret help, hoping to continue to meet everyone smoothly in the 20th edition. To Kei Fung said that the winners are still far from the word "breakthrough", just as it is impossible to ask the new generation to fix the atomic bomb now. He said that the amount of money given to the participants was not enough, and he would work harder to find help and raise enough funds. "I believe that with the hard work of my colleagues, I would be able to handle it well in these two or three years. I hope to give more opportunities to the younger generation. He said that the event has not provide enough for the participants' productions. Next year he would work even harder to find help and donations. "I believe that after the colleagues' hard work, we should be able to get through these few years. I hope to give more opportunities to the younger generations. Now I have 'grab the water'. Everyone knows how bad the situation in Hong Kong is now, and I think it's a pity that they don't have such an opportunity to try; but as long as they practice martial arts well, other places in Asian still have a lot of opportunities. Next year for the 20th anniversary of course the event would be made into a 'bigger deal', now we have to 'grab the money'. I hoped that those who have won awards for years would participate, but such an enormous one would depend on the budget. To Kei Fung gave special thanks to Louis Koo Tin Lok, saying that it was difficult to find help in this environment. "Now the world is very selective, it's not whether you are good or not, but whether you are chosen or not. When you go to such a world, many people have to secretly help first. It's not so easy, the road has been difficult for several years. I hope the environment will change in the future, so that free creators have a way to go, you must have confidence. Last year I have said that I would tough it out until 80 years old. Now I am 70 years old, but if I really can't handle it I would be really sorry." He said that society has been turning, and today we don't know what will happen tomorrow. "In the course of my life, I feel that everything is inevitable sometimes. No matter how hard you try, some things don't work. Sometimes you can't say it's okay, you have to have hope." To Kei Fung joked that he was very lazy, most of the time were spent on feeding the birds instead of work. The movie in which Anson Lo Hon Ting participated in only filmed for 10 days in 3 years, "I have to finish filming as soon as possible. I feel embarrassed, but I have other things to do recently." How Long would you want Tony Leung Chiu Wai (Wai Jai) to wait before starting the collaboration? He said, "I haven't talked about filming with Wai Jai, it's still not very clear. Of course it would be the best to have the opportunity to work with Wai Jai, I hope we can make another good movie. It depends on the timing, I don't know if it will be filmed in Japan. I would have to write the script first, which takes time." To Kei Fung has not noticed Kiwi Chow Koon Wai's new film DEADLINE (JI SAT TUNG GO) wanted to know the reason why it was not approved for release after it was sent for inspection for 4 months and in the end was banned from release due to 4 month for inspection. In the end due to national security issues a release was not approved. The script would have to be written first. Would this situation worry the industry? To said that now he worried about a lot more, just let it be. If he said everything had its time. While it would not affect the start of the film, but the mood would be affected. He has no direction, so he would settle and learn. Yau Lai To said that the industry certainly wanted to know the clear reasons for not being approved for release. Since he entered the industry, he has to face censorship problems. The standards were sometimes tight and sometimes loose, this time they would have to face how to resolve it. * (2025/12/21) Gigi Leung Wing Kei, Peter Chan Charm Man, Ling Man Lung, Rachel Leung Yung Ting and others attended the premiere of the new film PASS AND GOAL (YIK JUEN SEUNG BOON CHEUNG) the night before. In the film Gigi took a soccer ball to the face and thus became linked to a group of lower class children, then she even led them to form a soccer team to compete. The content was both inspirational and passionate. Gigi laughed and said that when filming the "face" scene, she asked for more force as she would rather take a shot to the face than reshoot it if the result was bad. Gigi admired the group of child actors in the film, who were well prepared and filmed with care. Because the movie was filmed in the summer, everyone got tanned together when filming outdoors. The children grew up rapidly within a month as well. Gigi said, "A soccer player herself, Chow Kei Yuet was a little shy at first. She reminded me of when I first entered the industry to film with (Andy) Lau Tak Wah. I remember back then I was very cowardly, I didn't dare to look at Wah Jai in the eyes as I was afraid of being electrocuted by him." Some said that the film has arranged for actors to cover Dicky Cheung Wai Kin's version of "CAPTAIN TSUBASA" for promotion, but unfortunately the copyright owner did not agree and made the plan dead on arrival. Although Gigi felt sorry, she also respected the decision of the copyright owner. Perhaps in the future the opportunity to be released would arise. As for whether the film company had any backup plan to deal with it, Gigi said, "Probably not, I can only stay at home and listen to it by myself. I like the Cheung Wai Kin version very much, I am very enthusiastic. Yet life is like this, sometimes despite all preparations it may not come true. You face it head-on, without this song promotion, we would be able to do more audience appreciation activities. The movie is very educational, I hope the children will be positively affected." When asked if Gigi has a dream that she still would want to pursue, she said, "Everyone has a dream, the only difference is whether it can be realized. Everyone knows that I studied design, I have thought about being a professional designer but now I don't have the opportunity as an actor. However many opportunities to come into contact with design in the circle would still arise." Gigi will return to Spain with her Spanish husband to visit relatives on Christmas, and will start the audience appreciation events after returning to Hong Kong. Gigi has been accused of serving as a judge for the finals of the talent show with the members of a Korean girl group, she admitted that she will be a talent show judge for the first time, so she will take the time to look at the performance of the contestants, and her scoring criteria will focus on the personal charm of the contestants. Ling Man Lung in the film played a rich kid and a Papa. He said that working with children has not been difficult, and it also gave him a taste of what it would feel like to be a father. He said, "The character would do some stupid things, so he would often make mistakes. As a result his father and son would scold him in the film, which is also the comedic spot the movie." The film encouraged everyone to pursue their dreams bravely. Ling Man Lung said that in addition to always acting to pursue his dreams, he also wanted to travel to Europe and set foot in places he has never been to. The reporter smiled and asked if he has ever thought about being a father in reality, Ling Man Lung said, "I have thought about it, but the burden of having a child is not only physical and financial, but also mental to be taken care of. I would also to pave the way for the child's life. I myself am still looking for my own path, if I have a child the pressure would be even greater." * (2025/12/20) The fresh out of the oven "Golden Horse Best Actress" Fan Bingbing starred in the movie MOTHER BHUMI, which will launch 5 Christmas preview screenings in Hong Kong to obviously pave the way for participating in next year's Hong Kong Film Awards. She hoped to become a "double gold" Best Actress! The appearance of Fan Bingbing made Zhang Ziyi, who was originally very likely to be nominated, suddenly have another fierce rival, the battle between "Fan and Zhang" would be infinitely warlike and full of excitement! The 44th Hong Kong Film Awards will be held in April next year, and films officially released in Hong Kong from January 1st to December 31st this year are eligible for nominations as long as they meet the requirements of the event. However, although many movies have not been officially released recently, in order to obtain the "ticket" to next year's Hong Kong Film Awards, they would be released for 5 shows before the end of the year to meet the registration qualifications. They included the Fan Bingbing starred movie MOTHER BHUMI, the Jennifer Yu Heung Ying starred movie GIRLFRIENDS (NUI HAI BUT PING FAN), and the Charlene Choi Cheuk Yin and Wong Yau Nam starred CIAO UFO (JOI GEIN UFO), etc., hoping to enter next year's Hong Kong Film Awards in a "surprise attack". In the "surprise attack" force, the focus would of course be on the Fan Bingbing starred MOTHER BHUMI, which just won the Taiwan Golden Horse Award for Best Actress last month. This time, Fan Bingbing's new film made a "surprise debut" at the end of the year, which undoubtedly dropped a shock bomb on the actors who had the opportunity to be nominated. Among the movies released this year, SHE'S GOT NO NAME's Zhang Ziyi, SOMEONE LIKE ME (JEUNG NGOR JEH YEUNG DIK OI CHING)'s Fish Liew Chi Yu, and MY FIRST OF MAY (MO MING JI)'s Natalie Hsu (Hui Yan Yi) were said to be have a great chance of being nominated. Among them, "Triple Golden Best Actress" Zhang Ziyi played the role of "Zhan Zhoushi", a murderous wife who suffered from domestic violence in an extreme "disfigurement" method in SHE'S and won a lot of attention. Darkening her skin and wearing a fake nose, stepping barefoot onto a manure filled field to play a female farmer who knew sorcery, Fan Bingbing absolutely could be her competition. Before the official nominations have been made, the competition is already ferocious. Another actress with the opportunity to be Fan Bingbing's opponent for the award, Hui Yan Yi had quite a connection to her. She starred in MY, and in MOTHER she played Fan Bingbing's daughter. No wonder the race has been said to stage a "mother-daughter" dispute at any time. Recently Hui Yan Yi went to Taiwan to promote the film MOTHER and attended 10 audience appreciation shows in Taiwan for two consecutive days yesterday and today. In many interviews she and Fan Bingbing often exchanged praises, and their collaboration was very pleasant. In addition, Fan Bingbing specifically shared the poster of the Carlos Chan Ka Lok and Liew Chi Yu starred movie SOMEONE LIKE ME on social platforms last month and wrote: "I just finished watching a good movie." In the movie, Liew Chi Yu played a girl with cerebral palsy, who meets and falls in love with the Chan Ka Lok starred sex volunteer. The subject was very topical. The strong support from Fan Bingbing could be considered as pre-race pleasantries. As for the Charlene Choi Cheuk Yin and Wong Yau Nam starred CIAO UFO, it announced yesterday that it would launch 5 Christmas preview screenings and immediately caused an internet uproar. Because the film started filming as early as May 2018 and was completed in August of the same year, was only screened at the "Hong Kong Asian Film Festival" in 2019 and 2023 and has never had an official release date. Yet another "urban legends" series of films that have viewers have waited years for release, the film's promotional slogan also specifically played with this idea: "The finale of urban legends, a strange treasure that has been universally overlooked", which was quite humorous. Louis Koo Tin Lok has starred in a number of film releases this year, including HIT N FUN (LUM SI KUET DAU), VITAL SIGNS (SUNG YUEN TOH JUNG), BEHIND THE SHADOWS (SI GA JING TAM) and BACK TO THE PAST (CHUM CHUN GEI), among which the film BACK would be released on the last day of the year, just in time to get the "ticket" to the Hong Kong Film Awards to be held next year. Whether he would be able to receive a nomination in the end, it was still up in the air. Another Best Actor Aaron Kwok Fu Sing has performed just as brilliantly in music and film. In terms of movies, he played the role of a bad father in MY FIRST OF MAY (MO MING JI) and a lawyer who risked his life to find out the truth in UNDER CURRENT (NOI MOK). His performances have deeply won the audience's appreciation and would likely receivec a Best Actor nomination again. * (2025/12/20) Jeffrey Ngai Chun Sun recently walked into the school campus with the director of the movie ROAD TO VENDETTA (SAT SAU #4) Leung Kui Ying and producer Man Pui Hing to share the behind-the- scenes work experience of the movie with the students. The director even invite two students to the stage to learn who to "take an order to become an action actor" and the audience responded enthusiastically. After taking the group photo, Jeffrey learned that the Form 6 students were unable to attend the sharing session because they were actively preparing for the DSE exam. He immediately agreed to the teacher's invitation and personally sent encouragement to the candidates, reminding them to face the exam with a tolerant attitude. He said, "If you are not happy, just send me a direct message!" He also signed autographs for everyone, during which students from other levels came to see their idols up close. * (2025/12/18) The Golden Horse Executive Committee announced yesterday that actor Chang Chen would take over as the chair of the Golden Horse Executive Committee. The current chair Mark Lee Ping-bing retired successfully, saying that he took over the chairmanship from director Ang Lee 4 years ago, adhering to the spirit of maintaining the freedom, fairness and openness of the Golden Horse, becoming a model in the film industry, allowing young filmmakers to go to the world. He revealed that during his tenure, he thought and observed which filmmaker to take over, hoping that the Golden Horse would maintain innovation and vitality, and the chairman also needed to be younger. After a long consideration, his choice was Chang Chen. Ang Lee also supported this idea. "The Golden Horse load isn't light. I am very happy that Chang Chen is willing to accept the invitation and take on the important duty." Chang Chen said that he watched a Sylvia Chang Ai-chia produce stage play this summer, which was the result of her years of promoting the "Gosh Foundation". "I admire Sister Chang (Chang Ai-chia) very much for her promotion and investment in performance and film and television, and her uninterrupted enthusiasm and persistence for decades. When Brother Bing (Lee Ping-bing) invited me to take over the Golden Horse Chair role, I was very surprised. I never thought I would take on this role, and I wasn't sure what the chairman's responsibilities were. Under the explanation of Brother Bing and CEO Wen Tian-Hsiang, I began to think about whether I would be able to do more for movies besides acting? The professional Golden Horse team would allow me to take on this new challenge without any worries. At this moment, the classic line from "Forrest Gump" comes to my mind: 'Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.' I shouldn't refuse, maybe I should continue to run like Forrest Gump and hope that the next Golden Horse will still be very Golden Horse."

Once a rising star in Hong Kong, a devoted carer for her elderly mother, a single mother struggling to make ends meet, and a widower yearning for connection – they each clutch fading fragments of dignity, community, and hope in a place as worn and forgotten as they are. The film portrays these fragile souls reaching out for connection – and discovering how far loneliness can stretch. Growing up within this immigrant community, the director witnessed firsthand the resilience of immigrants, creating a poignant meditation on displacement, aging, and the delicate threads that bind us all. Vancouver International Film Festival [ VANCOUVER INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2025 ] Timothy Yeung's film is a story of big losses, small triumphs, and moments of grace amid the grind of capitalism — in other words, life itself. Four Hong Kong immigrants are living lives of desperation in Scarborough, Ontario: Dan was a pop singer on the rise before his move to Canada, now he's barely scraping by; Eva is a lonely woman whose commitment to her aging mother has held her back in life; Fan is a part-time sex worker struggling to break into real estate; Tony is an aging widower whose factory job is at risk. Through these characters, Yeung explores diasporic alienation, economic hardship, and social isolation. His film is rich in cultural specificity, but that never obstructs his wider view. Building outwards from private hopes and personal pain, he creates a rich social document that cradles within it four precious human portraits. Tam, Yeung, Lee, and Wong are superb — their performances ring with commitment and authenticity. CRUEL STORY OF YOUTH (19TH FRESH WAVE) Length : 100 mins.

Opening December 5 2025 Site : https://www.freshwave.hk/ fb: https://www.facebook.com/freshwavehk Trailer : https://youtu.be/vYTx7uaUTfQ [ 19TH FRESH WAVE INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILM FESTIVAL ] This film, which broke Vietnam’s all-time box office record in 2024, was released in Taiwan under the translated title 'Love Again'; 'Vietnam Loves' was the translated title for the 'Asian Cinerama' project in Hong Kong, while the original title, 'Mai', refers to the name of the female protagonist. None of these offer a complete picture for the audience. Even more so, no synopsis can provide an accurate description. Try this: Mai, a massage girl past her prime, moves to the city to work. She meets Duong, a bar pianist seven years her junior, who pursues her recklessly. When she finally overcomes her inner demons and accepts his love, she discovers he actually comes from a wealthy family. However, Duong's mother, learning of Mai's dishonorable past, rejects her and tries to separate the lovers...Now doesn't this all sound quite familiar, resembling the Cantonese social dramas and ethical tragedies of CHOR Yuen, Filmmaker in Focus of last year? The truth is, Tr?n Thành has adopted a (nearly) hybrid style, combining Douglas SIRK’s melodramatic storytelling, R.W. FASSBINDER's subversive narration, and Pedro ALMODÓVAR's colourful imagery and complex and precise mise-en-scène. Through this constantly changing scenery, sometimes playful and witty, sometimes romantic, at times melancholic, others passionate, the lively portrayal of humankind (the apartment where all sorts inhabit) as in The House of 72 Tenants (1973), Mai's legendary life as heartbreaking as Darling Caroline (1951), the result is truly magnificent. Tr?n Thành’s two other works also rank 4th and 5th in Vietnam's highest-grossing films of all time. In addition to screenwriting and directing, he is also a renowned actor (especially in comedy), TV host and voice actor, at merely 38 years old. DHURANDHAR d.

Bodies hang precariously from the windows in a tangle of flesh and blood that soon leaves one man dead, while the other coolly walks away, shrugging off just another day in the life of a trained assassin. Known only as No. 4, this bleach-blond, stone-faced killer soon finds himself in Japan, where a seemingly straightforward assignment quickly spirals into a breathless game of cat-and-mouse with the Yakuza's deadliest foot soldiers. No. 4's client, a young woman with a personal vendetta against the city’s most notorious crime syndicate, ropes him into becoming her unwitting accomplice in a game of revenge that leaves them both out of their depth with a bounty on their heads. As their relationship evolves from professional to personal, they are left with no choice but to fight side by side if they are to survive the next 72 desperate hours. Wearing his influences proudly on his sleeve, first-time director NJO steers a classic gun-toting tale of heroic bloodshed into a head-on collision with a sleek, katana-wielding crime story of honour, betrayal, camaraderie, and vengeance. Drenched in neon and buffed to a shimmering polish, ROAD TO VENDETTA owes an inescapable debt to the works of John Woo, Johnnie To, Kinji Fukasaku, and Takashi Miike, even as it doffs its cap to the Hollywood homages—from KILL BILL to JOHN WICK—that have forged this path ahead of it. The result is a composed and enthralling calling card from an emerging new talent, paired with an agile, unflinching leading man, who together make an unstoppable pair.

To exact her vengeance, she spares no expense in hiring the assassin and attempts to enlist No. 4 in her grand revenge plan, only for their actions to inadvertently provoke a relentless pursuit by the yakuza, putting both their lives in danger...

Bodies hang precariously from the windows in a tangle of flesh and blood that soon leaves one man dead, while the other coolly walks away, shrugging off just another day in the life of a trained assassin. Known only as No. 4, this bleach-blond, stone-faced killer soon finds himself in Japan, where a seemingly straightforward assignment quickly spirals into a breathless game of cat-and-mouse with the Yakuza's deadliest foot soldiers. No. 4's client, a young woman with a personal vendetta against the city’s most notorious crime syndicate, ropes him into becoming her unwitting accomplice in a game of revenge that leaves them both out of their depth with a bounty on their heads. As their relationship evolves from professional to personal, they are left with no choice but to fight side by side if they are to survive the next 72 desperate hours. Wearing his influences proudly on his sleeve, first-time director NJO steers a classic gun-toting tale of heroic bloodshed into a head-on collision with a sleek, katana-wielding crime story of honour, betrayal, camaraderie, and vengeance. Drenched in neon and buffed to a shimmering polish, ROAD TO VENDETTA owes an inescapable debt to the works of John Woo, Johnnie To, Kinji Fukasaku, and Takashi Miike, even as it doffs its cap to the Hollywood homages—from KILL BILL to JOHN WICK—that have forged this path ahead of it. The result is a composed and enthralling calling card from an emerging new talent, paired with an agile, unflinching leading man, who together make an unstoppable pair.

Chan Tze-woon Length : 95 mins. Opening at the International Film Festival Rotterdam Bright Future Site : https://iffr.com/en/expanded/2022/films/blue-island [ INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL ROTTERDAM ] Although the Chinese government promised that Hong Kong would retain separate status until 2047, in recent years the Chinese state has consolidated its power over the metropolis. Large-scale protests by the populace have been brutally suppressed. This mix of documentary, fiction, and visions of the future reveals the current state of desolate depression among the people of Hong Kong. "A desperate attempt to capture the final moments of a sinking island", as maker Chan Tze-woon himself puts it. In four chapters, Chan looks back at previous moments of resistance and revolution on the island: in 1967, 1973, and 1989. He shows how the activists of then are faring now. Some still burn with righteous fire, while others are disillusioned or have been bought off by the system. The past is presented in fictional scenes, with today's activists playing those of yesteryear. As one of the young demonstrators observes of her predecessor: "All the hardships he endured seem to be repeating in our generation." ONE WEEK FRIENDS d.

Unfolding in the faded opulence of Tsim Sha Tsui's Mirador Mansion, it charts an unlikely bond between grizzled veteran Tai Bo and rising star Kuku So—he a mysterious rescuer, she a teenager running away from her mother's abusive partner. At first Alice (the Wonderland echoes ring deliberately) rebuffs her grizzled savior's gallantry. But their shared loneliness catalyzes a fraught rapprochement amid the mansion's crimson-lit maze. Chow wields colorful yet noirish atmospherics with a maestro's command, the dank stairwells and flickering fluorescents conjuring palpable peril. As this intricate two-hander hurtles toward its cathartic climax, you'll be gasping—not just from the suspense, but from sensing the new lifeblood pulsing through the story. In the live wire intensity between Chow's protagonists burns the fierce promise of the arthouse's inheritance of Hong Kong's pulp legacy.

Injustice has reigned over the quiet town of Shek O in Hong Kong. Chu Po is a young masked vigilante out to help those in need and kick a baddie’s ass. Just as her social-media popularity increases, so do her frequent injuries, as she learns that her beginner's skills may be no match for those of more experienced fighters. Fate draws her to a local church infested with illicit drug-dealing activities. She soon realizes her connection to that church is more personal than expected as there's a link to her family's past. Should she simply stay in the shadows and pray for a miracle, or put her karate chops to good use? An rejuvenated ode to both THE KARATE KID and the action heroines of Hong Kong's Golden Age, the latest from director Ricky Ko after his award-winning TIME (Fantasia 2021) once again nicely combines nostalgia and modernity with a potent mix of martial arts, humour, sweetness, and compelling characters, OUT OF THE SHADOW offers a guaranteed good time, a reminder of why we love HK movies so much in the first place. Starring several rising stars from Hong Kong, including two actors reunited after Fantasia favourite PORT OF CALL (2015), OUT OF THE SHADOW is fresh off several Asian festivals, and makes its first stopover in the West at Fantasia before it hits its home territory this fall. – King-Wei Chu [ OASKA ASIAN FILM FESTIVAL 2024 ] Chu Po is a sprightly teenage girl with a strong sense of justice but her mother, Tao Kuen Ying, would rather they keep a low profile in the fishing town of Tai O. However, people are in need and Po decides to take action after learning a little karate.

Ricky KO, director of Time (2021, OAFF2022), delivers a playful vigilante film, complete with laughs, fighting, Cantonese humour, and a touch of family drama unfold in the beautiful setting of Tai O.

Opening October 5 2025 at the Vancouver International Film Festival Opening at October 23rd at the 22nd Hong Kong Asian Film Festival (10.22-11.09) Opening January 15 2026 [ BROADWAY CIRCUIT ] In the often overlooked, aging neighborhoods of Scarborough, Ontario, four Hong Kong immigrants who arrived in the 1990s quietly unravel in middle age. Once a rising star in Hong Kong, a devoted carer for her elderly mother, a single mother struggling to make ends meet, and a widower yearning for connection – they each clutch fading fragments of dignity, community, and hope in a place as worn and forgotten as they are. The film portrays these fragile souls reaching out for connection – and discovering how far loneliness can stretch. Growing up within this immigrant community, the director witnessed firsthand the resilience of immigrants, creating a poignant meditation on displacement, aging, and the delicate threads that bind us all. Vancouver International Film Festival [ VANCOUVER INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2025 ] Timothy Yeung's film is a story of big losses, small triumphs, and moments of grace amid the grind of capitalism — in other words, life itself. Four Hong Kong immigrants are living lives of desperation in Scarborough, Ontario: Dan was a pop singer on the rise before his move to Canada, now he's barely scraping by; Eva is a lonely woman whose commitment to her aging mother has held her back in life; Fan is a part-time sex worker struggling to break into real estate; Tony is an aging widower whose factory job is at risk. Through these characters, Yeung explores diasporic alienation, economic hardship, and social isolation. His film is rich in cultural specificity, but that never obstructs his wider view. Building outwards from private hopes and personal pain, he creates a rich social document that cradles within it four precious human portraits. Tam, Yeung, Lee, and Wong are superb — their performances ring with commitment and authenticity. GIRLS BAND CRY THE MOVIE -HEY, OUR FUTURE- d. Kazuo Sakai Japanese Animation Length : 110 mins.

Tsim Ka Chun Documentary Opening January 30 2026 Trailer : https://youtu.be/s7qgxCaKPE0 CYCLONE d. Philip Yung Tsz Kwong Liu Yuqiao, Edwynn Li, Jenny Suen Length : 116 mins. Site : https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2026/films/cyclone [ INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL ROTTERDAM ] Named after a figure from martial-arts literature, Cyclone follows a wanderer travelling from mainland China to Hong Kong in search of gender-affirming surgery. As the journey unfolds, desire and identity blur, echoing Philip Yung's portrait of a city continually redefining its sense of belonging. Cyclone is a curious title, alluding to one of modern martial-arts literature and cinema's most tragic heroines: Mei Chaofeng, often translated as Cyclone Mei. Like her literary counterpart, Cyclone is a wanderer, travelling from the People's Republic of China to Hong Kong in search of gender-affirming surgery. Yet the longer the journey takes, the less certain she becomes of her desire. The identity in question and the passage undertaken reach beyond the individual. Yung is also thinking of Hong Kong, a place whose identity is constantly questioned and that keeps searching for a sense of its own belonging. Although internationally known for multilayered crime films such as Where the Wind Blows (2022), Philip Yung has long been drawn to more intimate stories. Cyclone feels like a place where everything he cares about has found a home. The narrative is both sprawling and concentrated, profoundly personal yet resonant with the experience of a people. It moves across temporal, regional and cultural barriers with clarity and grace, all the while maintaining an effortless visual beauty. – Vanja Kaludjercic ATEEZ VR CONCERT LIGHT THE WAY Opening January 30 2026 KUNG FU d.

Ten years later, released from prison, he comes face to face with Fong Yuen, the son he has never met. To claim the inheritance left by Fong Yuen's mother, Cheung must learn to live with and take care of the boy. Thrust into fatherhood and confronted by past regrets, Cheung's life is turned upside down once more.

Opening at October 25th at the 22nd Hong Kong Asian Film Festival (10.22-11.09) Opening November 13 2025 Teaser : https://youtu.be/1V6IPJEF7xg [ BROADWAY CIRCUIT ] The world of Kabuki, the elaborately stylised, male Japanese theatrical tradition, is the setting for director Lee Sang-il's epic melodrama of artistic ambition, rivalry and betrayal. It is an adaptation of a bestseller by Shuichi Yoshida, and weaves in stunning stagings of classic Kabuki tales that wowed audiences at Cannes Directors' Fortnight. In 1960s Nagasaki, after the death of his yakuza father, gifted teenager Kikuo is taken under the wing of famed Kabuki actor Hanjiro Hanai, even though the great performer already has a son, Shunsuke, who has dedicated his life to the art. Over fifty years, the relationship of the two disciples entwines and twists, and their hearts suffer as much yearning, glory and downfall as their on- stage alter-egos.
