THR: Taiwan Stands Tall as 'Warriors of the Rainbow' Earns Foreign-Language Oscar Shortlist Spot
Wei, one of Taiwan's most commercially and critically successful directors, received the news in the middle of the Asian night. He was unsure why Warriors had made the shortlist while the rest of East Asia is staying home. Asian films played no part in any major category last year.

The film stars Cecilia Cheung, Sang-woo Kwon, Angela Chang and Jing Boran

"The Great Magician" debuted with $11.55 million over four days and managed to wrestle the first place from the highest-grossing hit of the year 2011"The Flowers of War". "Magician"is the latest film directed by Derek Yee, who is good at balancing commercial success with artistic integrity very successfully.


Smaller films made big splash
Over the past year, three small-budget movies, Eternal Moment, The Piano in a Factory and Love is Not Blind, flexed their competitive muscle by attracting audiences and critical praise.
According to Chen Shan, professor at the Beijing Film Academy, the allure of small-budget films in the era of big-budget blockbusters is their ingenuity.
"Because their original cost is much lower, they can be more flexible with their themes. They dare to try something different from the mainstream, while blockbusters have to be more cautious," he said to the Global Times.

Singapore director Jack Neo is evidently sticking to his winning formula - fresh-faced teen actors, heart-breaking family drama and a healthy dose of social commentary in his latest directorial offering, We Not Naughty.
