Shaw Brothers old film digitally remastered new
release.
Running time 91 minutes
In 2001, there was director Ang Lee, villainess
Cheng Pei-Pei, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden
Dragon". 35 years before, there was legendary
director King Hu (AKA Hu King-Chuan) ("A Touch Of
Zen"), beloved heroine Cheng Pei-Pei, and this
film--universally considered one of the best Hong
Kong movies ever made. Here Cheng is Golden
Swallow, who teams with a swordsman named Drunken
Cat to battle a corrupt Buddhist monk with
mystical martial arts powers. Without question,
this production set a new standard for Asian
action movies.
