The 48th annual Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival came to a close on Saturday November 26th with its traditional awards ceremony honoring the years best Chinese-language films and filmmakers.
The Taiwanese big budget epic and representative to the 2012 Oscars, Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale, won 5 awards including Best Feature Film. While Hong Kong's own Academy Award submission, A Simple Life, took home 3 major awards for Best Director - Ann Hui, Best Leading Actor - Andy Lau, and Best Leading Actress - Deanie Ip (who also won for best actress at the 2011 Venice Film Festival).
I'm very much looking forward to seeing those two films, hopefully soon. Read on for the complete list of Golden Horse Award winners.
