Massage parlor tale wins big in Taiwan
Print Edition
A FILM about workers in a massage parlor in Nanjing scooped the most accolades at Taiwan’s 51st Golden Horse movie awards.
“Blind Massage” by Chinese director Lou Ye won six of the seven categories it had been nominated in, including best feature film, best cinematography and best sound effects.
The other big winner on Saturday evening was Chinese actor and director Chen Jianbin, 44, who won best lead actor and best new director for “A Fool” — a film about a Chinese farmer who meets a homeless man and takes him home — as well as best supporting actor for his role in Taiwanese military drama “Paradise in Service.”
Also at the awards ceremony in Taipei, Ann Hui won her third Golden Horse best director award for “The Golden Era,” which portrays the turbulent life of Chinese writer Xiao Hong.
The film had been nominated in five categories. Hui said her win was a surprise and she would have preferred her actress, Tang Wei, to win in the best lead actress category.
Instead, the award went to a lesser known actress, Chen Shiang-chyi, for “Exit.”
“I feel like I have made it, to be able to win this award for Taiwan. I love Taiwan films and I dedicated this for Taiwan,” Chen said.
Chinese director Diao Yinan’s “Black Coal, Thin Ice,” a thriller set in northern China that won the Golden Bear at Berlin this year, won the award for best art direction.
