Golden Hairpin, Part 4 (1964) missing from database?

[dleedlee]

I'm trying to figure out if it's missing from our database or simply listed under a different title. Both an English and a Big5 search doesn't seem to turn anything up, neither does it appear on the HKFA downloadable .pdf filmography.

However, it does appear on WebPac:

I'm trying to figure out if it's missing from our database or simply listed under a different title. Both an English and a Big5 search doesn't seem to turn anything up, neither does it appear on the HKFA downloadable .pdf filmography.

I thoroughly looked over the entire raw database and it's definitely not in there by that English or Chinese name. The first three appear to be in Ryan's original data as there have been no edits on these movies.

If it is of any help, here are all the 1964 movies in the DB by their ID number and sorted by English title:

Thanks, I will work on adding it unless calros beats me to it.

[calros]

I don't add info directly from WebPAC without checking it, you know me.

I removed "10733 (Chong Yuen Chun Gang)", it was my error. Sorry.

[dleedlee]

No problem.

I don't add info directly from WebPAC without checking it, you know me. .

Speaking of Webpac, I am curious. They claim to have 20,000 movies in their database, which is nearly double what we have....which makes me wonder where the discrepancy is. We don't have any TV stuff, and I believe we are missing a fair amount of direct-to-video and digital video material, etc. Somehow I suspect a lot of the missing material begins in the 80s.

At some point, I would like, in one form or another, to start adding television material (series and movies). The big problem will likely be obtaining any English information.

[dleedlee]

Don't know what's included in the 20,000 number, but they have catalogue info on books, LP's and non-HK films, too. For example:

The Graduate

Le Samourai

We have a few foreign films too. And ideally it would be nice to include every movie somehow connected with HK persons or companies...or even better, just have all Chinese movies from SAR, ROC, and PRC...but where do we draw the line?

I've tried to add a few PRC titles before but it's much harder to get details, especially when simplified Chinese is involved.
