[2010.11.23] LAM KA TUNG DECLINES TO COMMENT ON THE GOLDEN HORSE RESULTS

Lam Ka Tung yesterday attended a Metro radio interview. Ka Tung's film GALLANTS (DA LUI TOI) received a Golden Horse nomination. Ka Tung said that he attended the event earlier. Since it was the nomination he had to attend. This time was also an experience.

Speaking of this year's Golden Horse Award controversy due to most of the awards going to Taiwan films, Ka Tung said, "Are you asking me if it was fair or not? I didn't watch all the movies, I can't say whether it was right or not. Every place has its own judging standard, respect is the most important." He honestly said that this time the winners were somewhat surprised. He agreed with Hou Hsiao-Hsien's comment that Taiwan needed stars. He also praised that Ethan Juan (Yuen King Tin) had change in his character interpretation and great improvement. Speaking of Eric Tsang Chi Wai's son Derek Tsang Kwok Cheung losing the Best New Director award, Ka Tung pointed out that Chi Wai was able to be with his children (Tsang Kwok Cheung and Tsang Bo Yi) and the scene was already very exciting.
