Godfrey Ho

Director

“Really I have many pseudonyms, like Charles Lee, Alton Cheung, etc. The truth is I make too many crazy movies. I used to make fifteen movies each year and it's a little complicated to put out all the movies with the Godfrey Ho name. And I try to change my name, depending on the kind of movie. For erotic or modern day gun movie I am Godfrey Ho. I try to change the name, but the problem is, now everybody knows me and everybody understands that Charles Lee and Alton Cheung are the same man as Godfrey Ho. Now I forget all the pseudonyms and I have only Godfrey Ho. ”
