Cheng Pei-pei in Legendary Amazons |
For those who haven't been following the Wuxia Inspiration articles, I started doing reviews of movies starring Cheng Pei-pei. She is a phenomenal actress and is a notable wuxia star from the 60s and 70s known as the "Queen of Swords". She has also starred in a number of more recent wuxia movies, including Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (as Jade Fox) and Legendary Amazons (as She Saihua). But she isn't just a wuxia actress, Cheng Pei-pei appeared in comedies like Flirting Scholar and in the modern drama, Lilting. I've been strictly reviewing her wuxia movies, but her other roles are also definitely worth checking out.
Here are the Cheng Pei-pei films I've reviewed so far. I still hope to add this list as time goes on but further reviews may require finding harder to obtain films like Jade Raksha.
