分享到
Jointly organized by the Taipei Representative Office in Singapore, the Singapore Film Society (SFS) and SIM University’s UniSIM Centre for Chinese Studies, the talk entitled “Tribute to Lee Hsing: A Life in Cinema” was held at the Singapore National Museum on 25 April 2015. The Singapore Chinese Film Festival (SCFF) also paid tribute to veteran director Lee Hsing with 11 of his films screened under the Lee Hsing Classics retrospective programme.
At the event which was attended by over 240 persons, Director Lee made a special appearance to share his experience in filmmaking during the 1960s and 1970s. Representative Hsieh Fa-Dah thanked Director Lee for making the trip to Singapore. While exploring multi-faceted yet inclusive themes, Director Lee’s films are always consistent in promoting democratic values and moral ethics. As portrayals of authentic Chinese culture and values, Director Lee’s works reinforce Taiwan’s role as a standard-bearer of Chinese culture, a vision actively pursued by President Ma Ying-jeou since he took office in 2008.
