Movie Royalty

While most Americans were all tied up with the Golden Globes, I took a look into another awards ceremony, the Hong Kong Film Critics Awards. While the presentation cermony is not for another month, the announcements have been made.

The big news is that Tony Leung was announced as “Movie King”. This is Tony Leung Ka Fai, not to be confused with Tony Leung Chiu Wai (of Hero and 2046 fame). This title, along with that of “Movie Queen” are the top awards for acting. Popular actress Zhou Xun won the coveted “Movie Queen” award for her role in Perhaps Love. Tony Leung won for his portrayal of a violent gang leader in Election. Election also won best movie and best director, Johnny To.

Extra: A photo of Zhou Xun that boys will like.
