Actress Rene Liu at backstage of 2007 Hong Kong Film Awards CeremonyTaiwanese actress / singer / writer Rene Liu tried to take a bite of some bread at the crowded backstage of the 26th Hong Kong Film Awards Ceremony, April 15, 2007. Liu is known to western audience for her sterling performance in such critically acclaimed movies as "Siao Yu", "The Personals", and "Murmur of Youth." This year she received a Best Actress nod for her quiet yet powerful performance in "Happy Birthday", which is based on a short story she wrote. As a presenter, she just handed the Best New Director Award to Hong Kong star Daniel Wu earlier that night, who had a cameo in this funny behind-the-scene clip (if you could find him). In the end Rene writes:"All ceremonies end no matter who win, who lose. All movies end no matter how insightful and how long the story is. Just like life. Winning or not, gorgeously dressed or not, at least I had something to eat!"
