The first, " Just Another Drama Play" plays during the opening of the film and during the credits. There are two songs that play during the film, both sung by Sally Yeh. Our release includes a NEW line-by-line translation of all the dialogue to create the best and most accurate English subtitles available for this film. The result is that Hong Kong Rescue's definitive edition provides the first way to see this film completely uncut in nearly thirty years. Using a laserdisc reference, we fully restored this on-screen text to it's original condition. Every DVD and Blu-ray release of this title was missing the opening and closing text that puts the film's narrative in historical context.
We've done everything in our power to rectify this injustice by restoring the video, syncing up the best sounding audio tracks and perfectly timing up brand new English subtitles from an accurate translation for a flawless presentation.ĭirt, dust, scratches and broken frames were removed from the transfer and we applied some color correction to produce a more vibrant picture. HKR is proud to present one of the best films in Hong Kong cinema history that has been sorely neglected and disrespected on home video up until now. Truly worthy of it's many high praises, it remains an endearing classic of Hong Kong cinema, as well as a creative high point of Hark's illustrious career.
The film's kinetic energy never slows down and propels each scene to the next, yet never loses sight of it's character's intertwined motivations. Tsui Hark's satirical commentary on Chinese Democracy, Peking Opera Blues, expertly weaves comedy, drama, and high-flying acrobatics into a lavish, colorful production, not unlike Chinese opera itself. Fateful circumstances find the three joining forces as they muster the courage and fortitude to become female warriors. In the wake of China's first democratic revolution, three beautiful, high-spirited young women from very different backgrounds cross paths in a common quest for liberation.
