Member Winfred Posted February 17, 2008 Member Share Posted February 17, 2008 Is this Pearl Chang Ling movie also known as Miraculous Flower & also Fury Of The Silver Fox? Should I get the R1 or R2 DVD? I would prefer a widescreen version and not fullframe, preferably not dubbed. Thanks for the advice in advance.

Member peringaten Posted February 17, 2008 Member Share Posted February 17, 2008 No Matching Escort is a different film to Miraculous Flower (Flower also known as Pheonix The Ninja, as well as being the best of the Pearl Cheung films imo). Typically three seem to comprise almost a trilogy together to my mind, unrelated story-wise but consistent her (and other actors, etc.) extremely distinctive involvement, Pearl directing/starring, Wolf Devil Woman, Matching Escort, Miraculous Flower. Don't know about finding Matching Escort wide, Miraculous Flower you probably could. I'll be the first to stand up and say I hate dubbing, and I mean HATE, in ALL instances, except Pearl Cheung films. Manna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ironfistedmonk Posted February 17, 2008 Member Share Posted February 17, 2008 I'm the opposite, I like dubbing but these Pearl Cheung ones, no thanks lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Winfred Posted February 17, 2008 Author Member Share Posted February 17, 2008 Ocean Shores has released the trilogy on VCD in HK but only Wolf Devil Woman has an English dub. The other 2 does not have English dub or subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member vengeanceofhumanlanterns Posted February 17, 2008 Member Share Posted February 17, 2008 Not an overly impressive film, but worth owning. So that's Pearl Chang Ling is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Linn1 Posted February 18, 2008 Member Share Posted February 18, 2008 Matching Escourt has been used as an AKA for Mysterious Flower in some books. BTW, she didn't direct all three of those films. There is a widescreen version of Mysterious Flower from a Greek tape. There's also a widescreen version of Matching Escourt floating around among collectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Winfred Posted February 18, 2008 Author Member Share Posted February 18, 2008 Linn, will you recommend the one that is on sale at Amazon.uk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JustinB Posted February 19, 2008 Member Share Posted February 19, 2008 There is a French DVD release of Miraculous Flower (as Opération Phoenix Ninja) and it appears to be widescreen (there are some screen captures here). Unfortunately, I think it may only have French audio though with no subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Winfred Posted February 19, 2008 Author Member Share Posted February 19, 2008 The picture quality looks good JustinB. Is the French DVD still available? The poster of Miraculous Flower on the extreme left seems to be copied from the poster of Camelot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JustinB Posted February 20, 2008 Member Share Posted February 20, 2008 The picture quality looks good JustinB. Is the French DVD still available? It looks like it's still available from marketplace sellers at Amazon.fr. Also the price search page here lists a few copies as well. I'm really hoping that Rarescope will eventually release this since they had a clip of it on one of their recent U.S. releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
