金馬50星光閃耀：新科導演陳藝哲榮獲最佳電影獎，振奮新加坡電影界

Debut director Anthony Chen was presented with the prize by two-time Oscar winner Ang Lee, who chaired the jury for the 50th edition of the film honors, considered the most prestigious in Chinese-language cinema.

新科導演陳藝哲從兩度奧斯卡名導李安手中接下最佳影片獎，同時李安也是金馬50周年的評審團主席，在華人世界裡金馬獎是電影的最高榮耀。

Unlike the Oscars or France's Cesars, the Golden Horse winners are decided by jury. This year's jury was chaired by two-time Oscar winner Ang Lee, who presented the best picture trophy to Chen and his team, saying the jurors spent two hours deliberating the winner and conducted four rounds of voting to reach their decision.

與奧斯卡和凱薩獎不一樣的是，金馬獎得主事由評審團決定。今年評審團是由兩度奧斯卡金導李安主持，將最佳影片獎頒給陳藝哲和他的團隊，李安表示評審委員花了兩個小時仔細思量入圍的影片，而且進行了四次投票，才達成共識，由《爸媽不在家》勝出。

Singaporean director Anthony Chen's IloIlo was the surprise Best Picture winner at Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards Saturday night in Taipei. The 29-year-old director's debut feature beat out titles from some of the most established names in Chinese-language cinema, including Johnnie To's Drug War, Wong Kar Wai's The Grandmaster, A Touch of Sin from JiaZhangke and Tsai Ming-liang's Stray Dogs.

新加坡導演陳藝哲的電影《爸媽不在家》以黑馬之姿榮獲金馬獎最佳影片，而陳藝哲表示這次的肯定開啟了新加坡電影的新一頁。29歲的陳藝哲打敗了其他幾位已經極具知名度的華語電影導演，例如杜琪峰的《毒戰》、王家衛的《一代宗師》、賈樟柯的《天注定》、和蔡明亮的《郊遊》。

"Singapore is a very little country and we made this film with a small budget, so we never dreamed of winning a best picture prize," said Chen in his acceptance speech."The other nominees are the masters I learned from when I was in film school, so I'm very honored and thankful to them too," he added.

陳藝哲在授獎典禮上表示：新加坡是一個小國家，預算也不大，所以我們從不敢奢望贏得最佳影片，其他的幾位提名大導都是我在電影學院學習的大師，所以我非常的榮幸，也很感激他們。

大家知道Ilo Ilo是甚麼意思嗎？其實它是菲律賓的一個小島，伊洛伊洛，也是一個城市，在片中是Teresa來自的地方。也可以暗喻現代華人社會的疏離，在感情上像一座孤島，被汪洋圍繞。
