The Lady Hermit
1971 • Hong Kong • Directed by Ho Meng-hua
Shaw Studios knew a good thing when they teamed their remarkable star Cheng Pei-pei with versatile director Ho Meng-hua. This wuxia film was considered one of the director’s most notable from a filmography spanning more than forty films. Cheng plays the titular master swordswoman, who is injured in her chivalrous attempts to reform the villainous Black Demon. Hell has no fury like a woman wounded, so she teams with a pretty young sword student and virtuous swordsman to take revenge. This exciting story proves once again that Cheng Pei-pei, rediscovered for her remarkable work as the villain in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, is one of martial art movies’ most beloved players.
