Reports of discontent at Golden Rooster gathering
BEIJING -- China's top film awards, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flower Film Festival, has been marred by reports of disorganization and discontent as it reached its third day Friday in Sanya, on the southern island province of Hainan. Guests of the 14th edition of the festival, which celebrates a century of Chinese cinema this year and will present awards Saturday night, complained to local media about rude festival staff, a lack of information for journalists, and the high price of items for sale, the Beijing Times reported. "If I had known that the organization would be so poor, I would not have come," actor Zhu Xu, who starred as the father figure in director Yang Zhang's 1999 feature Shower, told the daily.
