Req: Wong Ang=Wong Aau, Wong Aau (1) and (2)

Postby dleedlee » Wed Aug 18, 2004 1:11 pm

If anyone has a copy of vol.1 of the HKFA's filmography would they please confirm the pre-1942 credits for Wong Ang/Wong Aau? The hkmdb has entries for Wong Aau (1) and (2). I am trying to establish whether they should be combined. I have temporarily created a Wong Aau (0) collating the credit post-1941 credits that I could verify from vols.2 and 3.

Wong Aau (2)
王鶯 - (this is the name in vols.2 and 3 as Wong Ang)
Cantonese: Wong Aau
Mandarin: Wang2 Ying1
Gender: Female

Filmography

Actor
Theft of the Red Pongee (1940) 王鶯
Valiant General, The (1940) 王鶯
Twin Sisters (1940) 王鶯
Lover of the World (1941) - I'm pretty sure this belongs under (0)
Three Heroes (1941) 王鶯
Roar of the People (1941) 王鶯
Song of Exile (1941) - and this one also

Wong Aau (1)
黃鶯
Cantonese: Wong Aau
Mandarin: Huang2 Ying1
Gender: Female
Aliases:
Wong Ang - Credited As

Filmography

Actor
I Married the Wrong Guy (1939) 王鶯
Great Separation (1939) 王鶯
Witty Taoist Master, The (1941) 王鶯
Scatterbrain, The (1951) - I've moved to (0) already
The following look questionable due to the gap in dates, but possible or perhaps another person with the same name. Final Justice (1988) 黃鶯
My Dream is Yours (1988) 黃鶯 黃鶯 (飾亞女),
May be Next Time (1989) 黃鶯
Sniping, The (1990) 黃鶯
Widow Warriors (1990) 黃鶯 (飾四姐)

I've added the names I found their credits under to the left of the title.

Hmm, two and a half years later, I think it's time to split off the post '80s credits from Wong Aau (1).

The Mad Rose (1982)
As Tears Go By (1988) ... Mabel (Wah's girlfriend)
My Dream Is Yours (1988)
Final Justice (1988)
A Bloody Fight (1988) ... Keung's wife
Thunder Cops II (1989)
Maybe Next Time (1989)
Widow Warriors (1990)
The Sniping (1990)

Without objections....

No, unfortunately not. There were brief hopes and hints that an updated 2nd edition would be published but it never happened. And the HKFA didn't print an English edition of vol 5. (covering the early sixties) either. :cry:
