Bad guy

I came across this nice picture of an old-movie actor, so scanned it to share with you. He is Sek Kin (石堅).


He was the no.1 super bad guy in old cantonese movies. And the chief opponent of Wong Fei Hong in Wong Fei Hong movies. His looks together with his cunning smile, horrid sneer and sly eyes made him top choice for bad-guy roles. My father said when he walked on the street some people scolded him and even threw things at him. This showed how successful he was in his bad-guy roles.

Sek Kin was the 'modern' equivalent of Lau Hak Shin who was the standard bad guy in classical movies (古装戏). Another 'modern' actor who starred mainly in bad roles was Loong Kong.

My mum told us that when Lau Hak Shin came to Spore, the Ah Sors scolded him and threw things at him.
