 |  |  |  | | The Federation of Motion Film Producers of Hong Kong selected THE TOUCH as Hong Kong’s Oscar submission for Best Foreign Language Film. It will be reviewed by the Academy’s Foreign Language Film Award Committee, which will vote for five foreign language picture nominees in January, 2003. A film nominated for Best Foreign Language Film Award consideration may also qualify for Academy Awards in other categories if it runs in a commercial motion picture theater in Los Angeles County before the December 31 prior to the Awards Ceremony. | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

 |  |  |  | | The Touch did not enter the Taiwanese 2002 Golden Horse Awards (at which "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won 6 awards and got 13 nominations, including Michelle's Best Actress two years ago). The Touch was not eligible for the awards since the regulations of the Golden Horse require the main language of the film to be Chinese (at least 50%). Although the Award Committee hoped they would submit the Mandarin dubbed version, The Touch filmmakers decided not to do so. | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |
