Ann Hui

Although Hong Kong is such a small place, but it still contributed a lot in the film industry. Ann Hui, as a film director, in addition also a film producer and screen writer, she portrayed a different view to the audiences compare to the male directors.

She was born 23 May 1947, her father is a Chinese and her mother is a Japanese. She born in China, then moved to Macau, finally moved to Hong Kong when she was five. After her graduation of her Master degree in 1975, she entered A Hong Kong TV station named TVB.

After a couple of screen writing for a few dramas, she left TVB in 1979 and became a film director.
One of the best film she directed recently was "The Way We Are" (2008); the plot of the movie is actually very simple, but the main character is middle-aged house wife, and the entire move is based on how her perspective to view about this world. The scenes are touching, reflected to the reality, in addition, there was very seldom of such moive. Here are some of the best scenes of the movie and I strongly suggest you to watch the entire movie, so you can also have a better know of the culture of Hong Kong.
