The Golden Rock - Not-So-Live Golden Horse Awards 2009 Edition
For some reason, no Hong Kong television station is showing this year’s Golden Horse Awards live (does the lack of HK presence play any role in it?). So all I could do was watch the entertainment news channel and update the awards list as I go. Now that I find out it was simulcasted on the internet live, maybe I can live-blog it again next year.
Until then, here’s the winners list:
