File - In this Sept. 25, 2009 file photo, Hong Kong film director Johnnie To posses during a photo call to promotes his film 'Vengeance' at the 57th Film Festival in San Sebastian, northern Spain. At a time when Hong Kong directors and actors are flocking to the kung fu and historical epics proliferating in the burgeoning mainland Chinese economy, To's edgy Cantonese action thrillers have long been regarded as the last bastion of local cinema. But even he must tap the vast potential of the mainland market to survive, the veteran filmmaker acknowledged on Thursday, Aug. 5, 2010. (AP Photo/Alvaro Barrientos, File)
