The Golden Horse Awards are happening this Saturday in Taiwan and they've done official photoshoots with the nominees. If you missed the nominations we listed them here. We have to share a handful of the photos which are by someone named CK for the Taipei Golden Horse Festival because they're gorgeous.
Zeng Meihuizi, Best Actress for Three Husbands
You might remember her from Summer Palace which had a bit of an international profile
Roy Chiu, Best Actor for Dear Ex
He's mostly been a TV star up until now but is nominated for playing a gay man who becomes involved in the life of the widow of his lover (a similar basic concept as Israel's The Cakemaker this year)
Zhao Tao, Best Actress for Ash is Purest White
You'll know her from Mountains May Depart, Still Life, and A Touch of Sin (she basically stars in all of her acclaimed husband's Jia Zhangke's films). She's won rave after rave for this performance including right here at The Film Experience
Chao Deng, Best Actor for Shadow (❤️ this movie / performance!)
Sun Li, Best Actress for Shadow (Chao Deng's wife on and offscreen)
You can see more of the photoshoot (which also includes the Best Director nominees) at the Facebook page of the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival.
