Australian label Imprint Films has provided a promotional trailer for The Cinema of King Hu: Volume One (1965-1973), a ten-disc box set. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on July 8.
Chinese cinema would not be the same without the enormous impact of writer and director King Hu. Hu propelled wuxia films into mainstream consciousness by combining his passion for traditional Peking opera and Japanese samurai cinema, ushering in a new era of action filmmaking throughout the 60s and 70s and revolutionising the landscape of genre film for decades to come.
