Shaw Brothers old film fully restored from the
original film.
Running time 122 minutes
Synopsis :
Best Picture, Best Director, Best Music,
Best Editing, Best Actress and special awards
for outstanding performance, this sumptuous
adaptation of a Chinese folk tale won them all.
Glorious Betty Loh Ti stars as a beauty that
disguises herself as a boy to get an otherwise
forbidden education. This sort of pre-Yentl
gender-bender role-playing is traditional when
it comes to Chinese opera, yet there is nothing
old fashioned about the superlative screen
treatment given to this all-time classic. |
