> [@kenobi\_65](#): > > The movies of James Hong True fact. James Hong made a porno movie. Before you reach for the mind bleach, he didn’t do any sex scenes. But he had a major supporting role in _China Girl_ (1974). This was a period when porno movies were trying to be semi-respectable and worried about things like stories and acting. ---

Ocean’s Eleven - Don Cheadle 5. The Devil’s Advocate - Keanu Reeves 6. Man in the Iron Mask (1998 version) Between the 4 musketeers, you have 4 different accents, and they’re supposed to be from the same (general) area and same (general) class of people. Throw in Leonardo DeCraprio with NO accent, and it gets worse. Worst job by John Malkovich.
