A tight, well-paced story
With its captivating atmosphere and stunning cast, this film delivers a crisp, well-paced tale of a scholar and a swordsman rescuing a tormented ghost maiden - three souls helping each other fulfill their destinies. The perfectly balanced comedic moments were particularly delightful. The swordsman's theme music especially left an indelible impression, perfectly capturing his free-spirited, chivalrous nature. And of course, seeing Leslie Cheung and Joey Wong together - they truly embody the golden age of Hong Kong cinema.
