...results were impressive: gnarled, noirish items like The Odd One Dies and Where a Good Man Goes. Milkyway developed a solid rep, and its house star, the sensitively sullen Lau Ching-wan, became the poor man's Chow Yun-fat. A Hero Never Dies, a blueprint for Fulltime Killer in its rivalry of two gang lieutenants, won a fistful of critics' prizes. Running Out of Time garnered Andy Lau his first Best Actor citation in the Hong Kong Film Awards. With The Mission, To was elevated to top status among Asian action auteurs.

...secret and no shame either than the Chateau Monte Cristo was haunted by many ghostwriters, and that its author signed his name to more books than anyone could ever write. ?Tis not expected of Pharaoh that he build with his own hands his own pyramids.

And the fact that home isn?t what he remembered is the kind of out-of-left-field "surprise" ending that gets mystery writers beat up at Ellery Queen conventions...

Last week, in an article buried in the Chinese-language newspaper Hong Kong Economic Journal, Beijing revealed a blueprint to create a powerful new government company that will hold a monopoly on all satellite broadcasts in China. The next day in the capital, officials quietly briefed media executives of their agenda...
