ACTOR Jackie Chan ( pic) praised his recently deceased colleague Ng Man Tat for his dedication to the profession, saying “there were only minor roles, no minor actors”, reported Sin Chew Daily. “To be able to work on each acting role diligently and give your best, while at the same time present your own unique acting style, is easier said than done, ” Chan, 66, told reporters recently. Both Chan and Ng were veterans in the Hong Kong film industry but took on roles in different genres, with Chan’s forte being martial arts films and Ng’s being comedy. The only time the two had worked together was in the 1999 movie King of Comedy, which was directed by Stephen Chow.
