Hi Carlos,

I enjoy your presentation. Nearly fall off my chair laughing :lol:
Those Hong Kong movie makers are in such a hurry to make films that they could'nt even get the cast's chinese names right especially lower tiers actors. We are not going to solve this mess this way. Small actors' name problems will always come back again. At least they are more careful with their 1st, 2nd tiers actors' names.
Perhap we shd just number lower tiers while concentrating on the accuracy of the top tiers.

None of them is an actor.
The first of them is a cinematographer.
The second a writer, director and producer (a fim author, they are called in this way).
The third a writer of the 80s.

The only doubt are the 4th, 5th and 6th. They're all film editors from the 80s. I'm sure that Mr. Chinchanchung is right and we should merge them, but... what are the right symbols? :?

Searching information about a chinese film editor is very difficult... You can not imagine it. So we should see the credits of at least one film for each editor to check his symbols.

The problem is that many chinese people use monosylabic names. And there a lot of "Siu Fungs" in
China.

Here in Spain we usually have two first names and two last names. So it is very difficult finding two film editors with the same name.

But I am sure that in Canada there are more than
800 David Cronenbergs and 600 Denys Arcands. What do we do if two of each couple become film directors? :wink:
