One of the last (and most ambitious) films produced at Shaw Brothers studio! Introducing 88 Films' Limited Edition Blu-ray (Region A/B) for An Amorous Woman of Tang Dynasty, a 1984 erotic Shaw Brothers thriller from director Eddie Fong Ling-Ching (Cherry Blossoms). One of the last films produced at Hong Kong’s legendary Shaw Brothers studio, and absolutely one of their finest – a visually ravishing and erotically charged story of a free-spirited female poet Yu (Patricia Ha, Nomad) who, frustrated by the conservative times in which she lives, refuses to behave in the ways nice young ladies are supposed to. Despite plentiful clothes-off action, this is so much more than a soft-core “romp,” boasting an artistic ambition that Shaw Brothers didn’t always show in their kung fu movies. Directed with intelligence and real style by Eddie Fong Ling-ching, this is one of the major films from Hong Kong’s Golden Age. 88 Films are proud to present this sensual masterpiece in the UK for the first time on Blu-ray.
