Hank Chien, the plastic surgeon who is the two-time (and current) world high score champion in Donkey Kong, is the subject of a documentary getting its second screening tomorrow.
In “Doctor Kong,” Chien, who took the high score in Donkey Kong about a year ago, then won it back from “The King of Kong” villain Billy Mitchell in January, is followed around for the year after his record-setting feat. He says when he contacted Twin Galaxies to certify his first record and told them he was a plastic surgeon, the referee asked him “Shouldn’t you be out getting laid?” A fair question. Chien implies he’s seeking fame, and therefore starfuckers, through his Donkey Kong play. But he may be joking, who knows.
