The New One-Armed Swordsman
1971 • Hong Kong • Directed by Chang Cheh
Chang Cheh wasn’t kidding with the title of this fondly remembered wuxia epic, which deservedly won a prestigious Golden Horse Award for Editing. He took his charismatic new star, David Chiang, and made him an all-new-one-armed hero - a man who chops off his right arm rather than live with dishonour. But when the love of his life is kidnapped and his best friend is murdered at a gang’s stronghold on Tiger Mountain, enough is enough. The climactic battle on an amazingly engineered moat bridge is a particular favourite among true fans of martial art masterpieces.
