About The Living Sword
Cathay Classic, Paul Chang and Melinda Chen star in this melodramatic Wu Xia picture. Sammo Hung is in the first minute or two as a duelist in the tournament and probably directed the fights.
Directed by Wong Ping, The Living Sword leans on a strong ensemble — Paul Chang Chung, Melinda Chen, Charlie Chin Chiang-Lin — 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 action titles of 1971.
