Thanks calros for create the base of the movie ZHUANG YAN MAY :

My "official" malaysian VCD doen't contains the beginning of the credits, but i can assure you that Ivy Ling Po is the main actress of this movie. Now you added the movie to the base, i replaced the credits captures by some of the actors and actresses from the movie. MrBooth, you can use them for the actors and actresses gallery of HKMDB. Thanks.

More captures from ZHUANG YAN MAY...
And the genre of the movie is "Huangmei Diao"

(pictures deleted)

[MrBooth]

Thanks - cropped to portrait format and uploaded. I don't recognise anybody in the film except for Ivy Ling Po (whom I have added to the cast - is her character called Zhuang Yuan Mei?), so if anybody else wants a go at IDing people, please go ahead:

The images look like they were photographed from a TV set - is that just how the VCD looks (still better than other Malaysian VCDs I've seen!), or did you take them with a camera?

[abbot]

Thanks MrBooth. I deleted my previous captures and put the VCD cover and chinese synopsis in my first post instead.

Yang Li-hua (楊麗花) also plays in the movie :

[abbot]

Ivy Ling Po & Yang Li-hua are both playing men's characters in ZHUANG YAN MAY (they're brothers in the movie).

Ivy Ling Po ... Yun Ching
Yang Li-hua ... Yun Chyun

MrBooth, more captures of Yang Li-hua (i mofified them because the ratio of the movie on the VCD is anamorphic !). Choose the ones you like for HKMD, and tell me when you'll upload them (i will deleted them from my post later).

Thanks - resized the original images to correct the aspect ratio, and added some more of Yang Li-Hua (who is gorgeous, btw!).

Uploaded the vcd cover and synopsis as images too.

Is the film really 1982? Ivy looks much the same as she did in the 60's...

Why are you concerned about the aspect ratio of the images? So the thumbnails are nicely formatted on the page? (Just curious...)

[abbot]

The ratio of the VCD captures were anamorphic when i sent them the first time. You can see on the VCD cover that the faces are deformed. Now all the images are at the correct ratio.

Understood...OK.

[MrBooth]

Yes, people had stretchy faces when I first uploaded them... should have noticed and corrected the first time really, but my brain must have compensated internally

They were actually a better shape for thumbnails before :p

I IDed some pictures
