Lady of the Law
Jiao is framed for rape and murder (and, later, two more murders) by Chen and his son - the same people who framed Jiao's father and left him orphaned. Into the mix comes THE LADY OF THE LAW, Miss Leng, whose job it is to find the guilty. This she does, and she and Jiao find themselves battling pretty much everyone else who's appeared in the movie up to this point.

Must See Movie...
Best movie ever!
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
6/7/1975 Shaw Brothers with Shih Szu, Lo Lieh,Chang Pei-Shan, Chan Shen, Tung Lam, Dean Shek, Yeung Chi-Hing and Ou-Yang Sha-Fei (244 films, many from the golden age of martial arts movies). The chief of the escort company finds his son kidnapped and must give up the shipment. The robbers are supported by rival escort man Yeung chi-Hing. The son grows up to be martial arts expert Lo Lieh. The little girl who helped him grows up to be Shih Szu. Lo is framed for a rape committed by Dean Shek. Shih Szu pursues him as he escapes again and again. The "ear witness" can prove Lo is innocent because he heard the rapist's voice. Shih Szu fights dozens of women in the "color array". Some of them must have been male stunt men but there was so many I'd say this was the biggest all girl fight sequence ever filmed. Bruce Leung's dad was the action director. This would have been above average for any other movie company of 1975 but Shaw Brothers made it look easy so I only rate it average overall.
Jiao (Lo Lieh, in another of his more sympathetic roles) is framed for rape and murder (and, later, two more murders) by Chen and his son (played by the exceedingly fugly Dean Shek- who played the exceedingly fugly singing monk in THE BLACK TAVERN- who happens to be a serial rapist/murderer)- the same people who framed Jiao's father and left him orphaned. Into the mix comes THE LADY OF THE LAW, Miss Leng (Shih Szu), whose job it is to find the guilty. This she does, and she and Jiao find themselves battling pretty much everyone else who's appeared in the movie up to this point. (Jiao, who acts like an unsophisticated manservant for the Chens, has secretly learned the Flaming Daggers technique, though I don't recall him actually using this technique during the climactic battle.) Needless to say, Justice triumphs in the end- but Jiao, who grew up pining for Leng, doesn't get the girl in the end. In fact, we see her riding off and him following in a quick set of freeze-frame shots, though the implication here is that there's still hope for them. Great movie.
