Jet Li, above, was named best actor when the Hong Kong film awards were handed out late Sunday in a glittering ceremony, Agence France-Presse reported. Mr. Li won for his performance in “The Warlords,” an action drama set in 19th-century China that also carried off the prizes for best film and best director (Peter Chan) among its eight awards. Andy Lau, a co-star of “The Warlords,” won the prize for best supporting actor for the crime thriller “Protégé,” and Siqin Gaowa of the quirky tragicomedy “The Postmodern Life of My Aunt” was chosen best actress. The award for best Asian film went to Ang Lee for “Lust, Caution,” and a lifetime achievement award was given to Raymond Chow, whose Golden Harvest studios fostered the careers of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee.
