By Hook or by Crook

A few of the ID's I'm not certain about so if you spot any mistakes, just go ahead and fix them :)

I think

http://hkmdb.com/db/images/movies/6138/ ... 0-27-t.jpg

this actor is not Chow Gam Kong,because we can see this guy and Chow appear in "By Hook Or By Crook" together,and it's clear that there isn't any special effects or montage effects,so they are two different persons.Their eyes,face structure,and even lips differ.I admit there is some resemblance,but not too much.

You are right - fixed. As proof I added images with both actors to the database (I think Chow is always the left one) and single potrait images for both:

I hope I did no mistake.

Because of that matter I had a little crisis yesterday - thinking for over a hour in which movies Chow could also be wrong! I think the two look very similiar (brothers?) and "not Chow" must be in more movies (but I hope not!). I'm not sure with

Descendant of Wing Chun (added one more image of "Chow")
Young Master
Killer in White (added more images of "Chow", now he has 4 images)

Opinions?

Created now Unknown Stuntman (20) for the "brother of Chow Gam-Kong":

I not sure with THE SAVIOUR :(

That also could be him and not Chow Gam-Kong:

It is not easy to say - they look almost like twins. Without BY CROOK I would never thought that there are 2 persons. It is possible that the "brother of Chow" is only in BY CROOK.

Added more images to compare:

1. Killer in White:

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/image_detail ... ay_set=eng

I think the actor in the first row is Chow and the actor in the second row could be "the brother". Looks like 2 persons, but maybe I'm only confused :D . Opinions?

2. The Saviour:
Added second image:

ID of Chow Gam-Kong's brother as Chow Gam-Hoi:

http://hkmdb.com/db/people/view.mhtml?i ... ay_set=eng

It is still possible that some movies listed at Chow Gam-Kong are for real his brother.
