Member panku Posted November 2, 2019 Member Share Posted November 2, 2019 All the ones I could identify are from 1969 - 1972, so the unknown titles could possibly be from those years as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member ShawAngela Posted November 7, 2019 Member Share Posted November 7, 2019 Thanks a lot for sharing this interview! Such a pity that we can't see more of these documentaries in their full length! It's always a pleasure to see David Chiang, Chen Kuan Tai, Lily Ho and the others when they were young! I also spotted Ching Miao, who seemed to direct a scene with David Chiang and an actress, and it also seems to me that I spotted Lily Li in the training scene... Run Run Shaw looks like a kind person in this interview... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Chu Liu Hsiang Posted November 7, 2019 Member Share Posted November 7, 2019 When asked what she thinks about kung fu, Lily Ho says, she thinks it's bad for the education but does not want to say more, to avoid trouble with the boss Thanks for sharing! After watching, I found these in the yt suggestions. Parts 2, 3 and 4 are also on the channel. Part 2 is also on the channel. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member DragonClaws Posted November 10, 2019 Author Member Share Posted November 10, 2019 In depth article about Shaw Brothers Studios, along with some rarely seen pictures. Shaw Studio, Hong Kong Link- https://about.shaw.sg/13-studioshk.html Quote The Shaws hit the ground running. Work on 6 sound stages commenced immediately on 650,000 sq ft of land that was cleared for that purpose. By 1958, with construction still going on, the make-shift studios managed to produced its first movie. When the first two sound stages were completed on November 1960, the light comedy 'All the Best' starring Peter Chen Ho opposite a bevy of starlets was shot. By the fall of 1961, two more sound stages were operational, including the multi-storey administrative building (which eventually spread over five blocks), staff dormitory, film editing, film processing, sound recording and dubbing rooms. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Chu Liu Hsiang Posted November 14, 2019 Member Share Posted November 14, 2019 Ho Fan (何藩 ) had a career in the movie industrie: In and outside the Shaw Studios, in front of the camera as well as on the director's chair. However, his true calling was street photography. He won his first award as a teenager, nowadays his works are shown in museums and collections all over the world. Lots of info and fascinating Hong Kong photos on his trust estate website https://fanho-forgetmenot.com/about and https://bluelotus-gallery.com/#/ho-fan-1/ Article on occasion of an exhibition of his works in 2017 http://www.ejinsight.com/20170623-chasing-shadows-in-bygone-hong-kong/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the one above Lo Lieh is Tien Ni Pretty sure the one between Ivy Ling Po and Tsung Hua is Tang Ching The picture on the bottom looks alot like Shu Pei Pei. The one in the middle with ballons could be Ching Li, but it is too blurry for me to be sure, but it has a Ching Li vibe. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the one I took for Tien Ni, could it be Li Ching ? And I wonder if the one on the left side of the one with the ballons could be Fung Bo Bo... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DragonClaws Posted November 17, 2019 Author Member Share Posted November 17, 2019 The Million Eyes of Sumuru (Shaw Brothers, 1967) Quote As it is, the two “heroes” — quotes definitely intended — are secret agents Tommy Carter (Frankie Avalon) and Nick West (George Nader), who are whirled out of China to Italy (where West is framed for the murder of a woman he’s never seen before but whose corpse is dumped in his hotel room by Sumuru’s minions as a way of getting him to participate in one of his diabolical “experiments”) and then back to Hong Kong, where the bulk of this movie was filmed at the Shaw Brothers’ studio.

Member ShawAngela Posted December 7, 2019 Member Share Posted December 7, 2019 I don't remember if I have it as a DVD or as a book or in both formats, but I know that I have Million eyes of Sumuru somewhere in my collection. And if I remember well, Bayangan Ajal is the Malay version of Summons to death. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Cognoscente Posted June 29, 2021 Member Share Posted June 29, 2021 It begs the question that if Bruce lee had chosen SB over GH in 1970, would Run Run Shaw have ceased movie production in the mid-80s? Also, would Shaw have been open about doing a collaboration that resulted in Enter the Dragon? I've often wondered what Hollywood thought about Shaw's Movie News magazine publicizing their actors like George Peppard in the April '67 issue and William Holden in the July '77 issue. I was quite surprised to see an advertisement of a GH production in the December '73 issue: Enter the Dragon. Speaking of December, William Holden could be seen reading the December '62 issue in the February '63 issue. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
