Chinese ghosts on the silver screen

For those who missed the recent hit movie Three (三更) and Three II -- Experiences (三更二), the festival offers a chance to see extended versions of the films' Hong Kong segments. Peter Chan's (陳可辛) Going Home (回家), the 30-minute film that won Leon Lai (黎明) Best Actor at the Golden Horse Film festival, will be screened as special 60-minute version. Fruit Chan's (陳果)Dumplings (餃子) shows what a high price an actress pays for magical dumplings that will help her keep her beauty and win back her husband's heart.
