Curiosidades

Burning Paradise (Foh Siu Hung Lin Ji 火燒紅蓮寺 is a 1994 Hong Kong wuxia film directed by Ringo Lam. The film is set in the Qing dynasty and stars Willie Chi Tian-sheng as Fong Sai Yuk and Yang Sheng as Hung Hei-kwun.

Production

Hong Kong director and producer Tsui Hark was initially offered to direct a remake of silent film serial The Burning of the Red Lotus Temple and passed on the option to make it.

Tsui Hark suggested to the producers to offer the project to director Ringo Lam. Lam had been interested in creating a wuxia film for years and accepted the offer. Derek Elley said that a swordplay film was "uncharacteristic" for Lam, and it became the director's only film set during the Qing dynasty. The wuxia film, is a form of martial arts film where the hero has an emphasis on chivalry and pursuit of righteousness.

The film was shot in Shanghai and predominantly on soundstages which was unusual for Lam. It was shot near where Hark was filming his film Green Snake (1993).
