Jackie Chan in The Legend of Drunken Master (Chia-Liang Liu, 1994) Cast: Jackie Chan, Lung Ti, Anita Mui, Felix Wong, Chia-Liang Liu, Ken Lo, Kar Lok Chin, Ho-Sung Pak, Chi-Kwong Chung, Yi-Sheng Han, Andy Lau. Screenplay: Edward Tang, Man-Ming Tong, Kai-Chi Yuen. Cinematography: Tony Cheung, Yiu-Tsou Cheung, Wen Yung Huang, Jingle Ma. Production design: Chong-Sing Ho, Eddie Ma. Film editing: Peter Cheung. Music: Michael Wandmacher, Wei Lap Wu. Jackie Chan is his usual charming whirligig self in Chia-Liang Liu's The Legend of Drunken Master, a movie that kung fu film aficionados take a good deal more seriously than I'm able to. In 2010 Time critic Richard Corliss placed it on the magazine's list of the 100 greatest movies made since 1923. There are certainly some breathtaking moments of action in it, along with a hilarious performance by Anita Mui as Chan's stepmother -- she was actually almost a decade younger than he. And I go along with Roger Ebert's comparison of Chan to Buster Keaton, though where Keaton was mostly stillness punctuated by moments of action, Chan is hyperactivity distilled to its essence. Unfortunately, the version of the film I saw was dubbed into English and shorn to fit a different aspect ratio than the original. It also lacks a concluding scene in which Chan's character, Wong Fei-hung, exhibits the effects of drinking methanol, which he does in the climactic fight scene. Apparently it was played for comedy, which the American distributors (perhaps rightly) thought distasteful. If a version of the film closer to the original ever comes around, I'd be happy to give Drunken Master II, which is what its hardcore fans call it, another look.

Révélations sur 'Enter The 36 Chambers' : Secrets inédits du premier album du Wu-Tang avec Le Boug Arknow DJ Flexta et Olivier Nguessan

Révélations sur 'Enter The 36 Chambers' : Secrets inédits du premier album du Wu-Tang avec Le Boug Arknow, DJ Flexta et Olivier Nguessan   Le Boug Arknow et DJ Flexta accueillent Olivier Nguessan (ancien journaliste dans les pages du magasine RER) pour une revue de l'album classique du Wu-Tang Clan "Enter The 36 Chambers" dans le cadre de leur série de podcast "Revue Véritables Albums".  C'est surement l'un de mes groupes fétiches et celui qui m'a le plus marqué dans ma jeunesse donc même si je croyais tout connaître du Wu et de cet album mythique, j'en ai encore appris quelques secrets grâce à cette échange de passionnés et connaisseurs de surcroît. Sorti en 1993, "Enter The 36 Chambers" est le premier album du légendaire groupe de hip-hop de Staten Island, le Wu-Tang Clan. Cet opus est considéré comme un des albums les plus influents et importants de l'histoire du hip-hop. Avec son style brut et agressif, ses samples de films de kung-fu, ses productions lo-fi et les flows uniques de ses 9 MCs, cet album a posé les bases de l'esthétique du Wu-Tang qui allait révolutionner le rap. Des morceaux comme "Protect Ya Neck", "C.R.E.A.M." ou "Method Man" sont devenus des classiques instantanés. Le Boug Arknow, DJ Flexta et Olivier Nguessan, en grands connaisseurs de hip-hop,reviennent en détails sur la genèse de cet album, son impact et décortiquent les raisons qui en font un monument musical incontournable, près de 30 ans après sa sortie Le concept de l'album s'inspire fortement de la passion du groupe pour les films de kung-fu, en particulier "The 36th Chamber of Shaolin" de 1978 et réalisé par Liu Chia-liang, qui raconte l'histoire d'un homme cherchant à maîtriser les 36 chambres du kung-fu pour atteindre l'illumination. Métaphore du travail entrepris par RZA pour amener Ghostface Killah, GZA, Method Man, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Raekwon, Masta Killa, Inspectah Deck, U-God et Cappadonna jusqu'au succés et bien plus...Wu-Tang is Forever ! Le titre "Enter the 36 Chambers" fait donc référence à ces 36 chambres légendaires de Shaolin, lieu d'entraînement des moines dans les films. Cela symbolise aussi la maîtrise du flow, des lyrics et des beats  par les membres du Wu-Tang. Au-delà de l'imagerie martiale, le chiffre 36 revêt aussi une signification spirituelle pour le groupe, basée sur des corrélations numériques avec ses 9 membres et les enseignements ésotériques de la Five Percent Nation, un mouvement afro-américain influencé par l'Islam. Musicalement, l'album se démarque à sa sortie en 1993 du rap West Coast gangsta qui domine alors. Là où d'autres enveloppent l'auditeur dans un univers de gangsters et proxénètes, le Wu-Tang s'inspire de l'esthétique des films de kung-fu pour immerger dans un monde de guerriers du verbe.  L'album donne l'impression d'une session live brute captée dans un sous-sol, avec des morceaux aux sonorités crues et agressives entrecoupés de skits renforçant la cohésion et l'identité du groupe. Un témoignage urgent sur les réalités violentes des ghettos de New York. "Enter the 36 Chambers" lance la mythologie du Wu-Tang Clan, neuf rêveurs de Staten Island (surnommé Shaolin) liés par une philosophie spirituelle et martiale commune, sublimant l'art du rap en pratique guerrière. Un appel initiatique à entrer dans leur univers. via Blogger https://ift.tt/2vNrP8x May 17, 2024 at 09:00AM

“The 8 Diagram Pole Fighter” review - Good pole moves.

I watched "The 8 Diagram Pole Fighter" directed by Chia-Liang Liu.  From IMDb, "Mongols with the help of an insider, ambush the influential Yang Family, defenders of the dynasty. The Mongols must hunt down all Yang survivors so their insidious plot to overthrow the dynasty will not be uncovered."  I found this interesting although not a great classic IMO.  Relative to HK martial arts, Chinese historical and/or legend relevance probably pretty good with a little Taoist belief and I Ching thrown in, it was good.  I enjoyed it..  There was lots of pole fighting.  It all was rather, um, staged, I thought.  The performances were interesting although possibly in a style that was a bit more present in Hong Kong historical martial art films and not necessarily that similar to present day dramatic presentations.  It has some good supplemental material which I'm still viewing.  The interview with "Tony Rayns covering the film’s folkloric origins as well as its initial box office reception in Hong Kong and China" was very interesting, I thought.  Visually the images and film quality seemed very good although again the images still seemed a bit staged to me and did not flow in a manner I fully appreciated.  I guess this is one of the more serious films the Shaw Brothers released and I still have a lot of their releases with a more comedic flair to watch.

Ambitious in scope and design and featuring #Some incredible choreography‚ not just in the fight scenes but in every scene of people interacting with one another #Original star Alexander Fu was killed in a car accident during production‚ and the film hastily reworked to move the emphasis from his #Character onto Gordon Liu; honestly‚ they did it so well that I'm not sure I would have noticed the rewrites and shuffling around of #Characters if I hadn't read about it before watching. Some incredible setpiece fights and characters that you actually care about.. #This is good hong Kong cinema. Kara Wai comes from nowhere to steal the film right out from under her male costars #Opening battle scene is fascinating in its artifice‚ being so clearly performed on stages and sets that seem to have been designed to be #Almost expressionistic rather than realist. Feels like the capturing of a legendary historical event on camera #Good stuff this. But be warned‚ the ending features perhaps the most dental trauma I've ever seen in one film
