Excerpt: Chow Yun-fat, SBS (traditional Chinese: ; simplified Chinese: ; pinyin: Zhu Rùnf; Cantonese Yale: Jàu Yeuhn Faat; born May 18, 1955) is an actor from Hong Kong. He is best known in Asia for his collaboration with filmmaker John Woo in heroic bloodshed genre films A Better Tomorrow, The Killer, and Hard-Boiled; and to the West for his role as Li Mu-bai in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. He mainly plays in dramatic films and has won three Hong Kong Film Awards for "Best Actor" and two Golden Horse Awards for "Best Actor" in Taiwan. Chow was born in Hong Kong, to a mother who was a cleaning lady and vegetable farmer, and a father who worked at a Shell Oil Company tanker. Of Hakka origins, he grew up in a farming community on Lamma Island in a house with no electricity. He woke up at dawn each morning to help his mother sell herbal jelly and Hakka tea-pudding on the streets and in the afternoons he went to work in the fields. His family moved to Kowloon when he was ten. At seventeen, he quit school to help support the family by doing odd jobs - bellboy, postman, camera salesman, taxi driver. His life started to change when he responded to a newspaper advertisement and his actor-trainee application was accepted by TVB, the local television station. He signed a three-year contract with the studio and made his acting debut. With his striking good looks and easy-going style, Chow became a heartthrob and a familiar face in soap operas that were exported...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=89446 ... Read more

Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Andy Lau (en sinogrammes simplifiés ; en sinogrammes traditionnels ; en pinyin ) est un acteur et chanteur hong-kongais né le 27 septembre 1961 à Hong Kong. Sa carrière a été lancée par ses participations dans des séries télévisées comme Eagle Hunter ou Retour of Condors Heroes. Il fait ses débuts au grand écran en 1982 avec la comédie dramatique Boat People de la réalisatrice Ann Hui. Le premier réalisateur à lui donner un rôle important est Wong Kar-wai avec As Tears Go By en 1988, année où Andy Lau enchaîne les longs métrages. Mais ce n'est qu'en 2000 que la consécration arrive enfin, avec le titre de meilleur acteur aux Hong Kong Film Awards, pour sa performance dans Running Out of Time de Johnnie To. D'autres rôles, dans Infernal Affairs ou Running on Karma lui ont valu des moments de gloire supplémentaire. Sa performance dans le film Protégé de Derek Yee, aux côtés de Daniel Wu, est une autre preuve de sa qualité d'acteur et de sa prestance à l'écran. En occident, il est surtout connu pour sa présence au casting des films Le Secret des poignards volants ou encore Les Seigneurs de la guerre, avec Jet Li et Takeshi Kaneshiro, ou encore Les Trois Royaumes : la résurrection du Dragon. Mais plus qu'un acteur confirmé, Andy Lau est aussi un chanteur célèbre dans toute l'Asie. Avec Jacky Cheung, Leon Lai et Aaron Kwok, Andy Lau était parmi les chanteurs les plus populaires des années 1990, et les médias les appelaient les "Quatre Rois du Ciel" (四大天王). En Chine continentale, il est une star majeure, ce qui explique sa participation à l'élaboratio...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
