HONG KONG — Wong Kar-wai’s martial arts fantasy “The Grandmaster” dominated the Hong Kong Film Awards on Sunday.
As it did last month at the Asian Film Awards in Macau, “The Grandmaster” collected 12 prizes including best film, best director for Wong and best actress for China’s Zhang Ziyi.
Best actor prize went to Nick Cheung for his role in sports drama “Unbeatable.”
There were consolation prizes for street dance hit “The Way We Dance” and for “Rigor Mortis,” the debut film of musician Juno Mak.
Wong said that he remained positive about the future of Hong Kong film. “Film-making is like kung fu. We should have faith in it.”
