Description
This is the Shaw Brothers quintessential 'huangmei opera' costume drama in all its Eastman Color glory.
Based on the famous Sing Dynastry tale set during Emperor Jen Tsung's reign (AD1023-1064), it tells the tale of two imperial concubines vying for the emperor's favour. Not exactly your typical family unit, but then again, this is not your typical Mandarin operetta.
The script is co-written by the great Chang Cheh, before he found his niche as Shaw Brother's most prolific kung-fu director
