San Te, a civilian on the run from oppressive Manchu officers, takes refuge in a Shaolin temple where he devotes himself to the most rigorous of kung fu training. Each of the temple’s chambers specializes in one precise aspect of training—be it swordplay, wrist strength, eyesight, or enlightenment.
Martial arts movies don’t come more iconic than this kung fu masterpiece from director Lau Kar-leung. With an acute focus on the disciplines of combat, it’s the ultimate training film, as Gordon Liu’s lithe apprentice eschews the path of vengeance for one of grace and spiritual self-determination.
