Little Dragon Maiden
When Hong Kong's new wave of gravity-defying action films debuted in the early 1980s, it brought with it a new generation of actors: Canto-pop stars. As kung-fu fighting veterans Chen Kuan-tai and Lo Lieh joined relative newcomer Leslie Cheung in a far-out, costume-action love story that truly cooks, Little Dragon Maiden cleverly blended the ancient with the new to produce pure golden enchantment. In John Woo's A Better Tomorrow, Cheung gained international acclaim.
