Election(《选坐馆》暂名) (working title) tracks a democratic election held within the worldof triads, a subject To confidently expects to have strong internationallegs. Milkyway's direct input will add more heart to the film's worldwidelaunch. No sales agents or distributors are attached as yet. "I want this film to be made without compromise and to accurately depict this world. If the Hong Kong censors or the local market cannot accommodate that then I will consider making another version for international," he said through an interpreter during a flying visit to the Melbourne International Film Festival(墨尔本国际电影节), which is screening Breaking News(大事件), which screened out of competition at Cannes(坎城). The Hong Kong censors have already said that the original triad-orientated title was unacceptable as it could encourage illegal activity.香港电剪部门认为因为电影的原名带有违法煽动性故不接受. To's Throw Down(柔道龙虎榜), starring Tony Leung Ka-Fai(梁家辉), Louis Koo(古天乐) and Cherrie In(应采儿), has just won an out of competition spot at the Venice Film Festival(威尼斯国际电影节) and screens at 10pm on opening night(开幕当晚). It is already screening at cinemas in Melbourne's Chinatown. Before making Election To will make The Sparrow(麻雀) for production/distribution outfit Universe Entertainment. It is built around the theme of pickpockets and will star Simon Yam. He has also submitted several very different concepts for films to China Star. 杜琪峰旗下的银河影像将会首次出钱投资拍摄电影. 电影暂名Election(选举), 是描述黑帮中的<民主选举>. 杜琪峰表示希望影片能够做到不妥协, 真实描绘<世界>. 他表示如果香港电检不太接受到影片, 他会把影片分为香港版和国际版.在拍摄此片之前,他会先拍摄环宇投资的《麻雀》.
