Painted Skin (huà pí 画皮) is based on one of Pu Songling' s classic short stories in Stories from the Strange Studio .

Painted Skin is Ningxia Film Studio's first shot since adopting this strategy. In the 1970s, Hong Kong released a horror film telling the same story. That film is considered as a classic, and the scene depicting the fox painted the human skin as its mask was regarded as the most thrilling scene by many audiences. This time, to attract more people to see the new version, the film was tried a new twist to the ancient story, by transforming the ghost tale into a romantic love story.

         
Infernal Affairs  ( wú jiān dào 无间道 ) is a 2002 Hong Kong crime-thriller film directed by Andrew Lau ( líu wěi qiáng 刘伟强 ) and Alan Mak ( mài zhào huī  麦兆辉 ). It tells the story of a police officer who infiltrates the crime gang, and a police mole secretly working for the same gang. The Chinese title means "the non-stop path", a reference to Avici, the lowest level of hell in Buddhism. The English title is a word play combining the law enforcement term 'internal affairs' with the adjective Infernal.

Deserving of its award at Cannes and of its prominent position in 1993's New York Film Festival, Farewell My Concubine (bà wáng bié jī 霸王别姬), a 1993 Chinese film directed by Chen Kaige (chén kǎi gē 陈凯歌), is one of the central works of the Fifth Generation Movement that brought Chinese film directors to world attention. Initially banned in China but shown to international acclaim, Chen Kaige's film is one of the year's true masterpieces.
