Which Golden Blade ? Do you mean Cold Blade ? Is it an aka ? He is praised for his Shaws movies, but he also directed good old Cantonese movies such as A deadly night, The black rose, Remorse, Spy with my face, The thief with a baby face, A fatal adventure, Man from Interpol, Purple night, Rhapsody, He joys and sorrows of youth, Wise wives and foolish husbands (with a young Bruce Lee), The deadly sword. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DiP Posted February 26, 2022 Member Share Posted February 26, 2022 Like Omni, I was mainly familiar with Chor Yuen thanks to his villainous role in Police Story but have since come to realize his overall contribution to Hong Kong cinema, thanks to his directorial works at Shaw Brothers.
