Member SamSeed Posted June 5, 2023 Member Share Posted June 5, 2023 With the brilliant news about The Skyhawk finally coming to the UK, I'd love to watch some of Kwan Tak Hing's classic Wong Fei Hung films. I assume there are no/very few DVD releases, even less ones that can play in the UK. Is there anywhere to watch them with subs? Is scouring YouTube the best bet? It's sad really, they are vital documents of Hong Kong cinema. A boxset of a hundred films would probably be pushing it but you would think a selection would have been released. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letterboxd only listing 33 acting credits for Kwan Tak Hing is taking me back to the time Bruceploitation films where on Bruce Lee's list of IMDB credits. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member BornToDefense Posted June 6, 2023 Member Share Posted June 6, 2023 Sadly most old WFH films I've found are on youtube and I've only ever come across the first one, The Story of Wong Fei-hung, Part 1: Wong Fei-hung's Whip That Smacks the Candle, with Eng subs. I know a few came out on VCD/DVD back in the day but idk how many. A lot of the stuff on youtube seems to be from TV. This channel seems pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/@cantonesefilm_old 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This channel seems pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/@cantonesefilm_old This is a very good chanel for old cantonese movies. Only down thing is most of them have no subtitels.... Have some of the old Wong Fei Hung movies on VCD from Universe but without subtitels too. Quality is good. You can watch them even on a 4k TV because they are in b&w and 4:3. But always disturbing is when watching old fu movies from this time there is no fight dubbing. Without kick and punch noise the fights act slow even they are. It is so nice to see Yuen Siu-Tin in younger age and Shih Kien in Wong Fei Hung movies. Some of the later ones of the 50's and 60's feature Lau Kar-Leung too. And most of the time you can see real kung fu masters showing their style on imaginations on the street or in kung fu schools. I like this movies and hope some day we will see a few of them on Blu remastered. imaginations 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
