The late great Ng Man Tat was best known for being Stephen Chow’s cinematic sidekick, at times stealing the show from the comedy icon himself.
But Tat Gor wasn’t the only supporting player who Stephen Chow let shine in his movies. Yuen Qiu’s chain-smoking landlady in Kungfu Hustle and Lee Kin Yan’s nose-picking Ruhua in Hail The Judge are just two utterly unforgettable, thigh-slappingly funny supporting characters that come to mind.
With the sad passing of Tat Gor on February 27, there has been renewed interest in what these scene-stealers have been up to. Scroll on to find out.
