Russell Wong is not Russell Cawthorne

Postby mpongpun » Sun Jan 09, 2005 3:48 am

Somebody must have mixed this up. Russell Wong is not the same guy as Russell Cawthorne. This name should be split up. Russell Cawthorne's Chinese name, at least per THE CONTRACT is Law Siu. In the CONTRACT, he plays the Indian guy who is the magician. Also, Russell Cawthorne used to be an executive at Golden Harvest under Raymond Chow a la Andre Morgan. If you have the Hong Kong Legend's disk of WAY OF THE DRAGON, he even has an interview.

Maybe there are 2 Russell Cawthornes. :?
I am the person who added this alias to Russell Wong (Law Siu) for the film "The Contract". As you can see in the credit screenshot, altough is written Law Siu 羅素, is translated as "Russell Cawthorne"... :shock:

Another topic is if Russell Wong is not Law Siu... (maybe you wanted to say that) (I only searched 羅素 in the Db and appeared Russell Wong) :!:

I have not seen the movie, I only update info with the credits screenshots the people send me; if the credits say (for example) Agnes Aurelio is Michael Hui, I'll add this alias automatically.

I'm not saying you did anything wrong. As I have just finished watching THE CONTRACT (for the 8th time), and noticed the credit for Russell Cawthorne in Chinese. That being said, The two should be split up: One for Russell Cawthorne...and one for Michael Wong.

Well, it's OK for me.

I presume the only film with Russell Cawthorne as actor is "The Contract",

...and the rest of them are of Micha... I mean, Russell Wong :lol: which has the same chinese symbols 羅素(BTW, I found there is an alias to Russell : 王盛德)

I will split them in 15 days if nobody stops me... :wink:
