FYI, Hong Kong Film Archive, a government-run institution and facility, did a selection and screenings of g100 Must-See Hong Kong Moviesh last year as part of their 10th anniversary. The list includes a lot of ancient stuff which I assume you can only watch at their facility, but nonetheless interesting.
"The 100 titles include works by 58 directors produced in different eras, including Benjamin Brodsky's "A Trip Through China", made in the early years of the past century, and works from the 1930s and '40s including Lai Man-wai's "A Page of History" and Zhu Shilin's "Sorrows of the Forbidden City".
