If he says so, it must be true, but the scene in which it happend can be reshot with an other guy, so it doesn't have to be in the film

I forgive you

But back to Sammo. I think he's great: Millionair's Express, The Prodical Son, Knockabout, and Odd Couple are the ones I like the most, but he realy surprised me with his acting skills in Heart of Dragon. Have you ever seen a director/action director play such a role?

I found the Sammo Chat. Here he says he hit the windshield, maybe I misunderstood him? I'm not sure now. I remember somewhere else he talked about it as well, and because the window didn't explode before he hit it, he got injured badly. Cannot remember where I read it...

Back to Heart of the Dragon... Yes, he is a great dramatic actor too. I liked the audicommentar of HKL edition of is by Bey. They wanted Sammo to fight at any price, it doesn't matter that he is a mentally ill person. I admire him for being able NOT TO FIGHT, when it's not right, although the majority of people want him to fight... I too, love to see him and then , because he is simply amazing. But he can step aside and let others make the fight - and in the meantime we all know that he is simply the best of them all...

Sammo is also able to product different movie's style :

comedy/drama/kungfu comedy/ghost kungfu comdey/war,... He's a genious

It will be very interesting too to make a list of all the person (all we can remember) he introduced in the HK films for the first time :

- Yukari Oshima (Millionaire's Express)
- Michiko Nishiwaki (My Lucky Stars )
- Richard Norton (Twinkle...)
- Michelle Yeoh (Owl vs Bombo)
- Cynthia Rothrock (Yes Madam)
- Joyce Godenzi (of course )

and many others for sure (you can add them if you want).

Right now Casanova Wong comes to mind, but as Sammo was first out in filmbusiness of the Peking Opera school, I say Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and the others. But as actors and not only stuntmen I would put here Chin Kar Lok, Lam Ching Ying and even Dick Wei.

I'm typing in an old Sammo interview by Bey Logan and I have to admit I didn't know a lot of things... I never knew a thing about Haing S. Ngor... Didn't even know he died, let alone his life... I am really ashamed of myself...

I still don't know who Haing S. Ngor is!
I will have a look................ oh, is it him!

Just slightly off-topic , but Haing S. Ngor had more films than one and he won an Oscar, too, for his role in Killing Fields.
(I learnt this today )

little bio in the french version

Hey guys, you know about Sammo and Yuen Biao's new series 'Wing Chun'?

Sammo and YB are so pleased being together again, they held hands

Panda did a topic about it (in french sorry but there are some fotos) : HERE

I don't think so

Yeaah, a Master piece and huge acting for Haing S. Ngor.
Still off-topic?

I guess so! I never saw that film I guess, too much focus on Sammo
and Ricky Hui

Well, I couldn't rest, I made some captures of the window stunt and I am 100% that it is Sammo we see.

I say, justice for the Great Man!











Now, with this making clear, I'll sleep really well. Good night!

Oh, and I typed in the interview, in case you'd like to read it it's HERE

Does anyone know which year it was? I guess it's around 1990 as he speaks about Pantyhose Hero.

little bio in the french version

Thanks J-L, but unfortunately I cannot read French... Or rather, I can, but don't understand. But still, there is only Eastern Condors (Sammo topic, see? ) mentioned and other films not...

I was actually really surprised to find entry about Haing S. Ngor in the Hungarian Wikipedia! Pieter, don't open a Hungarian topic please, but we sure would deserve it!

Off topic!

But perhaps we could add Hungarian to THIS?

Oh, you see? Sometimes it is useful to go off-topic!

Yes, that's a good idea, put Hungarian there! I'd be glad to help anyone who needs help in Hungarian.

I am a very friendly, helpful person, you know

Thank you Klara. Hungarian is added to our service.

Hi,

I'm making caps of Hapkido now and I couldn't resist to send this one:



Our Great Man looking VERY fierce here...

That reminds me of his "other side", the comedian, so here are some faces I liked to see:













That's whom I call the sleeping Lion! Don't wake him up!




OK, I have some more, but I'll have pity on you and won't post them now.

This one is a bit more serious. Does anyone know what happened to Sammo's left shoulder? What kind of scar is that?

Thank you very much Klara for all those pictures
They are all very good.

I don't remember to ever see the one with the scar. Maybe it's from Pantyhose Hero, one of the few Sammo's movie i can't find anywhere

This photo with the scar is from "Daddy, Father and Papa" from 1991. The first time I saw this scar was in "Touch and Go" aka: Point of No Return. I cannot recall it from earlier. So he must have suffered an accident or sg in the beginning of 90s. It sure looks bad. I'll have a look at this in other films.
