two americans dancing, there was a say that Mr. Fung was an american marines in world war II, serve in the pacific battlefield, as an american to flight the japs.
Sek Yin Tse (石燕子) was also an american soldier to fight the japs in the pacific war.
Thanks for telling us both 周坤玲 & 馮應湘 were born in US. This is the 1st time I heard about it.
I dont know if its related to the place of his birth, I always felt 馮應湘s outlook, façade and demeanour were quite different with most of other Chinese male actors at that time. Hes more westernized in nature.
Even he always acted as the villain, he had the power drew women towards him. 黃錦燊 possessed such similar attractiveness when he first joint the show biz in HK.
周坤玲 and 黃超武 for many years had a restaurant in San Francisco's Chinatown, where they could be seen daily. They had a daughter, a young teenager at that time. 何非凡 came around l958, 59 or 60. It was very unfortunate. 黃超武 seemed like a nice guy, always smiling and attentive toward his customers. After the restaurant changed hands, I never saw any of them again. 周坤玲 was born in San Francisco. 馮應湘 was born in Sacramento. I knew 周坤玲's older sister very well.
It's fun watching them dance. No wonder the camera followed them almost all the way. Both of them were born in the US. 周坤玲 returned to the US in the late 1950s, while 馮應湘 died of appendicitis in 1955, at the age of 46. So sad.
I have no idea. Maybe someone familiar with the Chinese communities/Cantonese operas in the US will know? I've just googled her information. The big news story about her is still her affair with 何非凡 (he also appears in this clip...haha), which led to her divorce from 黃超武. But that's long time ago.

馮應湘當年的死是很不幸的事, 事緣他入醫院割盲腸, 割盲腸當年來說風險也不大, 就是因為風不大, 而手術後康復進展良好.
不過那時的醫藥沒現在的先進, 所以手術後, 傷口復元需要比較長的時間. 因此馮應湘便得在醫院多住一段時間.
而馮本人又好玩健身, 又花花公子型, 滿身都是嗜好, 又好美食.
所以在住院康復期醫院限制其食物, 要他吃得清淡, 馮自覺身體狀況不錯, 所以沒有把醫生的話放在心上.
馮在女友人探望期間請求女友人買來燒鵝等美食. 在醫院偷吃.
就是因為吃得太肥膩, 又多吃了, 做自盲腸手術傷口處縫針爆裂, 傷口感染而死.
真可惜.

如果見過周坤玲沒化妝的樣子，就知道她的眼睛沒這麼大和有神，是正好相反的。

1952年，馮應湘居住在九龍佐敦道46號地下。他的作風西化，曾在1952年11月3日(星期一)晚上10時，駕駛他的車牌：9552轎車沿彌敦道南行至普慶戲院時，與鄰座女子擁吻，被控不小心駕駛，被九龍栽判署罰款港幣50元。

Thank you so much for your information on Chow Kwun-ling. I know that here many movie buffs still remember her. And I remember Fung Ying-seong, too.
