About The Unscrupulous General
One time soft-drink salesman Chang Chia-po, now a powerful warlord, courts the support and aid of the ammunition dealers Tu Mu-hsien, Robertson and Wilson. To impress them with his power and the strength of his army, Chang orders a parade. Much to his dismay, the parade ends in catastrophe giving the gun dealers a very bad impression...
Directed by Tang Sheng, The Unscrupulous General leans on a strong ensemble — Tang Pao-Yun, Yueh Yang, Tsui Fu-Sheng — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1973.
