TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — “The Great Buddha +” led the pack Sunday with 10 nominations, including best feature film and best new director, for next month’s Golden Horse Awards.
The movie is about a security guard at a factory who watches the dash camera footage of his boss’s car for fun. He gets more than he bargained for when his rich boss’s misdeeds begin to unravel in front of him. Originally a documentary filmmaker, “The Great Buddha +” director Huang Hsin-yao shot the movie in black and white, and wanted to highlight Taiwanese social issues with the film.
Trailing behind with seven nominations are three films, including the family drama “Love Education,” the suspense thriller “The Bold, the Corrupt and the Beautiful” and the comedy “See You Tomorrow.” [FULL STORY]
