The 26th Hong Kong Film Awards will be held on 15 April 2007. This year, the awards are dominated by nominations from big films like Election 2,
Curse of the Golden Flower and After This Our Exile. The Best Actor Award shows a great challenge between great actors: Chow Yun Fatt, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Lau Ching Wan, Aaron Kwok and Jet Li competing for the award.
