Dragon Inn - The Masters of Cinema Series (Blu-ray) (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: Dragon Inn - The Masters of Cinema SeriesCondition: NewFormat: Blu-rayDescription: A quintessential entryway into the highly stylized, tightly choreographed wuxia genre of martial arts cinema, Dragon Inn was a global breakthrough for the form's greatest practitioner, King Hu. Its influence remains incalculable, from its annihilation of traditional expectations of what kind of role an actress should inhabit (also chipped away at by Hu's previous masterpiece Come Drink with Me), to the formation of many of the genre's archetypes - such as the Eunuch, the Swordswoman, and the Family of Murdered Loyal Officials - that are still recognizable in the martial arts films of today. It's the middle of the Ming Dynasty. The powerful eunuch Cao (Pai Ying) has killed the Loyal Minister Yu, and Yu's children are exiled to the border, whereupon Cao undertakes efforts to massacre the remnants of the family. As Yu's children take refuge in the Dragon Gate Inn, Xiao the righteous swordsman (Shih Jun) and the surviving loyalists of Minister Yu engage in a series of battles to the death against the forces of the blood thirsty eunuch.No Of Discs: 1Run Time: 111 minutesStudio: EurekaRegion Code: Region BGenre: Foreign Languages & EFLRating: 12Language: Mandarin, English, English, ChineseSubtitle Language: Hard of Hearing English, EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: TaiwanActor: Pai Ying, Shih Jun, Polly Kuan, Miao Tian, Sit Hon, Cho Kin, Go Ming, Got Siu-bo, Ko Fei, Tien PengMPN: EKA70169Release Date: 10/26/2015Director: King HuEAN: 5060000701692Release Year: 2015 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
