Forget Me Not (1968) and Brave Tanks (1968)

[john_larocque]

Going back to the HKFA spreadsheet again (1913-2003) and noticed a number of (non-newsreel) gaps.

The first, "Forget Me Not", released 6/18/1968. Appears to be Taiwanese?

The second, "Brave tanks", released 5/2/1968

Finally, the third title appears to be a remake (or at least the same Chinese title) as Golden Leaf Chrysanthemum (1949) http://hkmdb.com/db/movies/view.mhtml?i ... ay_set=eng.

"Chrysanthemum" aka "The Chrysanthemum with Golden Leaves" was released 1/17/1968. I couldn't seem to find the entry in the HKFA search (in English), but it's in the HKFA 1968 list. It's a directorial from Fung Chi-Kong and is this title:

Looks like it could be this film, same cast, crew, year.

I did a compare with the HKFA document, and I've linked to either the wrong row at that database, or it simply isn't in the other place. Both films both came out of the same company (Gam Hoi) but the director and actors are different on the HKFA source document for the 1968 film. In any case, I gave you a bad link. Never mind Chrysanthemum.

I found the row at the HFKA source site!

THIS is the film I'm talking about.

Not sure if I'm following you but the HKFA entry looks like a Chiu Chow/Teochew dialect opera film. Like the Amoy/Hokkien dialect films, our db is not as complete as what HKFA lists regarding those directed toward regional markets.

By chance, it's available on video:
