King Eagle
The glorious thing about films like King Eagle is that we can step into the world of humble beginnings and marvel at greatness in the making. It's like watching old B&W films and recognizing faces that today are the biggest names in the industry. King Eagle is your prototype, lone wandering swordsman tale that further solidifies the soon to be, penultimate Shaw Brothers' director Chang Cheh on the precipice of greatness. Ti Lung's future, lone wandering, swordsman characters can be traced to this film's influences. We can also witness a break out action role for Shaw Brothers' "baby and acting queen" of drama Li Ching. Written by Celestial Pictures
