Rattling Whip (1971) - Richard Yeung / David Chiang

Postby john_larocque » Sun Jul 13, 2008 6:45 pm

HKFA lists a film for 1971/6/10 called "Rattling Whip", directed by Richard Yeung Kuen and which according to two offsite sources stars David Chiang. Doesn't seem to be in here. The only known film (in HKMDB) the two have starred together is 1992's Twin Dragons! If this isn't an alias for something, it should be added in.

Here's two offsite rows on the title:
http://www.dianying.com/en/title/16125
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1237942/

( I'm normally suspicious of IMDB but it corroborates the existence of the film and the director )

Curious puzzle. Here's some random nuggets that I found:

First, is this in the online database? I could only find it in the older 2004 .pdf file. I'm wondering if the dianying.com entry didn't come from the same source, and then later deleted from the HKFA db as a revision/correction?

The imdb refers to it as a 1969 Taiwan film.

Listed in this David Chiang filmography from a blog

The Taiwan film database has this 1969 entry except w/o David Chiang in the cast.

I found it in the 2004 PDF file. There's a 2006 verison of the PDF, but I don't know if it's in there. I haven't scanned the online database.
