One is an illegal immigrant on the run from a ruthless Hong Kong gangster. The other, a struggling student from Taiwan just trying to make his father proud. Their paths cross in the most unlikely of circumstances, but together they must survive the mean streets of…. CHINATOWN! That’s right, this week we are taking a look at the 1977 Shaw Brothers Kung Fu classic, ‘Chinatown Kid’. Directed by genre pioneer Chang Cheh, and starring one of the biggest superstars of the era, Alexander Fu Sheng, this gripping tale of struggle, brotherhood, and revenge, delivers plenty of hard-hitting action, as well as a surprising amount of social commentary as well. Today’s episode is extra long as we spend a good 30 minutes trying to dissect how many different versions/edits there are of this film, and how the plot completely changes depending on which version you watch! We also take a look at the amazing Kung Fu battles, the thematic elements which make it a surprising entry in the long list of Hong Kong migration films, as well the interesting and tragic career of Alexander Fu Sheng.
