The Battle of the Peaks (Part 1 and 2)
Dir: Wong Tin-lam True to Cantonese cinema ethos, Tso Tat-wah's toughness is balanced with genteel humility, a manifestation of kinder and gentler times. In this two-part wuxia saga, he plays an accomplished martial artist dragged into an epic struggle that spans three generations. He is partnered with action diva Yu So-chow, in another version of the cherished collaboration that is now the stuff of film legend. The film is helmed by Wong Tin-lam, the proficient Mandarin director who also left his mark years later acting in the films of Johnnie To. |
