This Shaw Brothers Mandarin language musical delight, based upon a well-known Chinese tale, does not break off from a successful Shaw formula established with its predecessors, but for minor improvements, and includes the many wonted pleasures of their productions, depicting a stylized romantic story with poetic verve. This is the most accomplished filmed version of the popular story, benefiting as it does from the romantic Shaw style, and is the last Huangmei, or "yellow plum" opera produced for eight years, its screenplay nicely crafted by the highly professional veteran Yueh Feng, who directs here as well and brings to the film engaging additions to the customary mixture, including usage of freeze frames and partial shooting deployment into outdoor settings that help to develop a more naturalistic atmosphere; production quality is very high, notably with the decor, costumes, and lighting; the extraordinarily graceful hand and body movement and rhythm of Li Ching beggars description.

  ¡Oh! Tiene una pinta estupenda, ¡¡muchas gracias por la ficha, airisa!! 

Habrá que ponerla en algún momento en la mega retro de la Shaw Bros. Me pregunto si el decano Silien lo habrá visto ya...
