Hark Tsui height - How tall is Hark Tsui?

Tsui Hark received the Star Asia Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2011 New York Asian Film Festival.

He was the fourth Chinese film director (after Kaige Chen, Jiang Wen and Edward Yang) to join the board of judges for the 57th Cannes Film Festival in 2004. Another Chinese film director joined the board of judges after him in the 58th Cannes Film Festival in 2005: John Woo, with whom Hark had a falling-out out during production of _Die xue shuang xiong (1989)_.

Although the company was intended to be contemporary, it went on to become one of the most successful production companies in Hong Kong, having produced such classics of Hong Kong cinema as _Sinnui yauwan (1987)_ and A Better Tomorrow (1986), which was directed by John Woo and starred the amazing Yun-Fat Chow.

After making numerous critically and successful films, he co-founded his own production house, Film Workshop, with his wife, Nansun Shi, in 1984.

In 1979 he directed his film debut, The Butterfly Murders (1979). It raised a lot of attention, and was hailed by many as the start of a new wave in Hong Kong cinema.

After graduating from the University of Texas in Austin, majoring in film, he returned to Hong Kong in 1977 and landed a job working in television.

He worked on American TV projects in New York from 1975-1977

Tsui Hark recently became the fourth Chinese film director to join the board of judges for the 57th Cannes Film Festival in the feature films category this year. An internationally acclaimed visionary director, Tsui started making experimental movies with 8mm film when he was only 13.
