Tears, a typhoon and sunshine at Golden Horse

Best Actree award went to a tearful Yang Kuei-mei, while Andy Lau took the Best Actor honor at yesterday's 41st Golden Horse Awards

By Yu Sen-lun  /  STAFF REPORTER

In Taiwan, where humanism is still the leading filmmaking trend among directors, there are new talents and new spirits among the younger generation, said the jury member, who did not want to be named.

Her opinion was backed up by the number of prizes that went to Hong Kong films and actors, as well as local award-winning Taiwanese films such as Formula 17 (十七歲的天空) and Splendid Float (艷光四射歌舞團).

The latter picked up the Best Make Up and Costume Design award for Jean Chen (陳淑津) and Lai Wei-joung. It also took the Best Original Film Song and Best Taiwanese Movie of the Year award -- an out-of-competition prize that gave local filmmakers a chance to celebrate.
