  • “Our Time Will Come” Wins 5 Trophies at Hong Kong Film Awards The
    “Our Time Will Come” Wins 5 Trophies at Hong Kong Film Awards The 37th Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony took place on 15 April at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. The star-studded event this year was broadcast live on ViuTV, which had produced a series of film awards-themed programmes to usher in the big day, including reality shows on the nominees of Best New Director and Best New Performer. Ann Hui’s wartime epic “Our Time Will Come”, based on the heroics of a resistance group fighting Japanese occupation in Hong Kong, was the big winner bagging five awards. Wilson Yip’s action film “Paradox” received three nods while upcoming director Chan Tai Lee’s “Tomorrow Is Another Day” snatched two. “Tomorrow is Another Day” is a social drama that puts autism on the big screen. Veteran actor Louis Koo continued his awards-winning streak by picking up his first Best Actor honour at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Koo also won Best Actor, the first major acting prize in his career, at the Asian Film Awards in March this year. “I have been thinking how we can all make Hong Kong film thrive,” Koo said in a heartfelt speech. “Hongkongers must be united… the industry needs your support.” Reflecting on inspirational moments encountered in the industry over the last 20 years, Koo paid tribute to the Lifetime Achievement Award winner Chor Yuen, “When I was filming with Uncle Chor Yuen years ago on the set of a TVB show, his advice influenced me until today. He said that we should never give up on any scene, and any line of dialogue.
