The Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival (台北金馬影展) has announced the results of its survey of the "100 Greatest Chinese-Language Films".

122 industry professionals took part in the survey, including film scholars, festival programmers, film directors, actors and producers. However the majority of the voters orginate from Taiwan, which likely skewed the results.
