China's 'Beijing Blues' wins at Taiwan film fest

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) ? China's "Beijing Blues" won the best film award Saturday and Hong Kong's Johnnie To took home the best director's award at Taiwan's Golden Horse Film Festival, an event considered the Chinese-language Oscars.

"Beijing Blues" portrays the lives of the urban dwellers through the work of a squad of plainclothes crime-hunters.

In receiving the award, director Gao Qun Shu was visibly shocked, and he thanked the "globe" for giving an inexperienced director like him such honor and recognition.

To won best director for "Life Without Principle" about ordinary citizens in Hong Kong who are caught in the fallout of the global financial meltdown.

The film also won veteran Hong Kong actor Lau Ching Wan the best actor's award for his portrayal of a triad thug seeking to recover money lost in a loan shark scheme.

Lau said he was happy to receive the award "even though you don't act in order to win an award."

Taiwan's Gwei Lun-mei won the best actress award for portraying a woman involved in a romantic triangle in "GF-BF" or "Girlfriend-Boyfriend."

She burst into tears on receiving the award after beating out hot contenders including Hao Lei and Bai Bai He, both of China.

China's Liang Jing won the best supporting actress award for playing a toothy midwife harpy in "Design of Death."

Best supporting actor went to Hong Kong's Ronald Cheng for his role in "Vulgaria" about the financial capital's struggling film industry.

Controversial Chinese director Lou Ye did not receive the widely expected award for directing box-office hit "Mystery." But at the ceremony, Lou received a rare mention for eventually directing a movie that was screened in Chinese theatres.

"Mystery" ? about a woman's radical revenge after uncovering her husband's infidelity ? is seen as marking Lou's entry into the commercial mainstream after years on the social and artistic edge.

Lou's films have long focused on sensitive subjects like sex, violence and politics, and have repeatedly been censored by China's cultural authorities.

A special award for outstanding movie worker was presented to Huang Yu-siang, a 25-year-old blind Taiwanese pianist in real life, for his first movie shot in Taiwan's "Touch of The Light," about young artists pursuing their dreams.

Big Data to Create 960K New IT Jobs in APAC by 2015: Gartner

As more enterprises invest in big data, 960,000 new IT jobs will be created in the Asia-Pacific region in the next three years, but only one-third of these big data roles will be filled due to a skills shortage, according to a Gartner analyst.

Speaking at Gartner's annual Symposium/ITxpo on the Gold Coast, Gartner senior vice president and global head of research Peter Sondergaard told delegates that governments and organisations in the APAC region will need to focus on big data education and skills development, such as data science, to remain competitive.

World's Cutest Celebrity Couple Pick Up Cozy SoCal Spread - Curbed

Thursday, November 15, 2012, by Amy Schellenbaum

The Real Estalker is reporting that the The Help actress Emma Stone and actor boyfriend Andrew Garfield (he of Spider Man and The Social Network) have just dropped $2.5M on a ranch-style Beverly Hills abode once owned by the late actor/comedian Dudley Moore. The duo?objectively the most adorable celebrity couple on the planet?met on the set of Spider Man and are supposedly already living together in an NYC apartment. At 3,862 square feet, their SoCal pad, a low-slung house with a flagstone fa?ade, is relatively unassuming, and its French doors, beamed ceilings, and generally sunny disposition give the place a coziness that's often missing from other, more capacious celebrity manses. See more above.
