Synopsis of <To be Continued>
Convenient, tired and vapid, ‘East-meets-West’ is a cliché that has for decades been used to sell the ‘Hong Kong story’ to the world. Yet in the forgotten legend of Harry Odell, Hong Kong’s first impresario, a rediscovery of the city’s soul awaits.
Flamboyant and cigar-chomping, Odell was a Cairo-born, Shanghai-bred Russian Jew who stamped his mark on the cultural life of post-war Hong Kong. His hopeful, if chronically loss-making adventures pushed the cultural frontiers of his adopted home, capturing the open, dynamic and inclusive spirit of a bygone era to leave a legacy that resonates to this day. What began as a conservation campaign to save the iconic State Theatre in Hong Kong morphed into five years of research and interviews with those who witnessed Odell in action. The result: a film that is as much a study of one indomitable pioneer as it is a soul-searching journey of what defines Hong Kong.

紀錄⽚簡介
歐德禮是⼀個時代，代表⼀個被遺忘的美麗舊香港。
他是叱吒⼀時的娛樂⼤亨，是皇都戲院前⾝ – 璇宮戲院的創辦⼈，五⼗年代戰後蕭條，他已⼀⼿引入多位國際知名⾳樂家，永遠叼着⼀⼝雪茄⾒報寫專欄，演藝事業虧損慘重，卻為香港⽂化開闢了新天地，被稱為「香港⽂化史前⼈物」。
但他的傳奇今天卻無⼈知曉。
有⼈不⽢⼼，五年來鍥⽽不捨去翻查資料，上⼭下海⽤盡古怪⽅法尋覓歐德禮的後⼈，赫然發現跨時空的連繫。
在那個⽩天上映⿈⾶鴻和林黛電影的⼤戲院，晚上有名家如 Isaac Stern、Fournier坐鎮，華洋雜處，雅俗共賞，只此⼀家。標誌香港新時代的⼤會堂開幕，第⼀場演奏正是由歐德禮承辦。
五、六⼗年代那個消失的香港⼜再被看⾒：曾經如此兼容並包、不問⾝世、各種⽂化互相碰撞，那是香港和世界的初戀。
讓我們記得這個故事。歐德禮和香港的傳奇，尚未完場。

Hong Kong History Centre
Established in 2022, and based in the History Department at the University of Bristol, the Hong Kong History Centre is the world’s first research centre focusing on the study of Hong Kong history.
The Centre will build on the achievements of the 2015-22 Hong Kong History Project. Since its launch, Bristol’s Hong Kong History Project has supported seven doctoral research projects and four postdoctoral research fellows, as well as the publication of articles, book chapters, and books on a diverse range of topics relating to the city’s past. In its seven years of activity, the Project has built an international reputation for its leadership in facilitating the study of Hong Kong history, by investing in emerging talent in the field, as well as supporting conferences and workshops in Britain, Hong Kong, and Canada, and networking with colleagues internationally.
The Hong Kong History Centre will provide a structured programme of support for a fresh cohort of researchers. It will provide an open platform here at Bristol through which scholars internationally at all career stages can exchange views at workshops and conferences, and through speaker series and visiting programmes, share findings and develop the study of Hong Kong’s regional and global impacts, and the histories of its peoples, both within the territory, and across its global diaspora.
In particular, the Centre aims to sponsor research on the history of Hong Kong and its peoples, nurture and develop academic talent in the field, and serve as an international hub for the discipline, hosting visiting staff and students. Another core strand of our work is public engagement and outreach, with an interest to raise public awareness of the history of Hong Kong and its global relations. The Centre will also be launching a Hong Kong Historical Archives initiative, actively building a visual and textual archival collection, which will include an online public platform hosting photographic and other material relating to the history of the city.

香港史研究中心
英國布里斯托大學歷史系於2022年成立的香港史研究中心，是全球首個專注硏究香港歷史的學術基地。
中心承傳了布大於2015-2022年開展的香港歷史研究計劃，該計劃曾先後支持了七位博士生及四位博士後研究員的研究工作，促成了無數重要學術論文專著的出版，並曾在香港、英國及加拿大舉辦過多個學術研討會。在這七年間，計劃大力推動國際學術交流、積極支援人才的培訓、促進對香港歷史不同範疇的研究，在香港史研究中擔當了重要的角色。
中心將繼承了香港歷史研究計劃的使命，並在其豐厚的基礎上繼續推動相關學術研究。我們將向新一代歷史學人提供更全面的支援，以更多資源培育香港史專才。中心亦會透過舉辦講座、研討會及訪問學者計劃等活動，務求發揮作為一個世界級學術交流平台的作用。
我們亦會致力提高社會各界對香港史及其全球關聯的認識，務求提高普羅大眾的史學知識。中心將於布大圖書館建立香港史檔案特藏，並會設立網上數位典藏平台，以供社會大眾瀏覽與香港史相關的相片及其他重要資料。
