Music: Joseph Koo
Screenplay: Yi Fang
Assistant producers: Louis Sit and Hsiao Chin-Fang
Director of Photography: Li Yu-Tang
Assistant Directors: Shin Wei-Chun and Hung Hsin Pei

Some roll names:
Nora Miao: Hsiang Lan [Uncle Chu's daughter]
Lee Kwan(1): Wei Min [Restaurant owner]
Wilson Tong: [Ku's henchman]

Whang In-Shik is not given a name at all, but is a kind of Renegade Master. Wilson Tong could be more accurately described as "Renegade Master's student" as he is this before he goes to work for Mr Ku.

Added roles. I am not sure about your crew info... for example, according to the HKFA, the music composer is not Joseph Koo but Frankie Chan. :? Can you make credits screenshots?

I don't have a program that will let me. Does anyone know of a Freeware program that will let me capture a screen in WMP?

It definitely has those names on the opening credits, though.

To make a screenshot in WMP you have to click on "PAUSE" and, in your computer keyboard, press on "PrtScn" button.

Then you must open the "Paint" program ( Start> All Programs> Accesories> Paint ) and in this program you must click on "edit" and then in "paste".

If the image do not paste correctly (that is, the image is "moving") you must do the following
* Open Window Media Player
* Then go to Tools | Options
* In Options, select the Performance Tab
* Way below you click on the Advanced Button
* Uncheck “Use Overlays’
* Click Ok

If you download VLC, you will have a mediaplayer that can take screencaps. AN other one is Media player classic. Both are free!

Well, I couldn't get either of the WMP things to work, but VLC worked. So thanks for that.

Here's a screen grab:

Are there any others you need checking?

Lordy, why would anybody go to all that trouble? Just get a media player that doesn't suck :)

Yes, you are right, Joseph Koo in the english and in the chinese credits.
The HKFA is wrong here.

Added your info excepting Hsiao Chin-Fang (it must be a new person not in our DB; to add new persons I need the chinese characters).

Also added film editor and sound, who appear too in your screenshot. Thank you very much.

BTW are you sure Raymond Chow does not appear in the credits as producer?

No, he doesn't - which is odd. In fact, there's no mention of this being a GH film at all, and even has another film company's name on it. But it definitely was the Skyhawk I watched, and not some other film in the wrong case or something. I don't have an explanation for that at all.
