Tina Chin Feh in THE KUNG FU KID (1977)

Postby Brian Thibodeau » Wed Nov 10, 2004 1:07 am

I recently rented an old VHS of this Lo Wei film from my local library and noticed that Tina Chin Feh plays the lady gangster who employs Michael/Raymond Chan in the film. She is listed in the opening credits (in English and Chinese) and in fact has a much larger role than top-billed Nora Miao, who plays the hero's subservient girlfriend. The database lists her films up to 1976, but I'm guessing she was still working after that if this film is any indication. I'm not able to post screen captures, so hopefully someone else can verify this in order to have the film's entry updated.

Here's one place that mentions her role in the film:

Checked your info in WebPAC (obviously it was an error of the editor who input the info) and added.

Just curious. What's webPAC? I've seen it mentioned here a lot. Is it some kind of actor database?

It's the HKFA's beta version of an online film catalog, in Chinese only, except for titles, but still useful. Beware, that it is not without it's own errors. (e.g., The entry for Invisible Lucky Star lists Lai Cheuk Cheuk, Yue Ming and Cheng Kwun Min in the cast but none, as far as I could find, are in the film. I believe they relied on China Art's vcd cover. I think Lai Man was mistaken for Lai Cheuk Cheuk. The actual film credits are too difficult to read to definitely ascertain. Or perhaps, their scenes were just snipped on the vcd.) Still, very helpful:
