The 1980s was a golden era for Hong Kong films. In the early 1980s, local films outperformed foreign ones at the box office. Well-developed cinema circuits competed fiercely with one another, while Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest and Cinema City stood out as the three major film production companies. In addition, an increase in number of films produced, the abundant acclaimed works of the emerging new wave directors, and the establishment of the Hong Kong Film Awards were all testaments to the vibrancy of local film industry during this period.
