흥미로운 사실
The Sword (名劍) is a 1980 Hong Kong wuxia film co-written and directed by Patrick Tam, starring Adam Cheng, Norman Chui, JoJo Chan, Tien Feng, Chui Kit, Bonnie Ngai, Eddy Ko, and Lee Hoi-sang.
Production
Raymond Chow was credited for the producer for most of the 1970s films by Golden Harvest, which is internationally known for making martial arts films starring Bruce Lee such as The Big Boss (1971) and Enter the Dragon (1973). After Golden Harvest attempted to create similar films such as Hapkido (1972), academic Leung Wing-Fat commented that the studio's style was too "formulaic and repetitive".
Among the new talents was director Patrick Tam. Like many directors of the Hong Kong New Wave films, Tam began in television. He started out in the Hong Kong television station TVB as a prop assistant in 1967. By 1975, he was directing programmes such as Superstar Special. His last major television production was 13 (1977), and The Sword was his first feature film.
The story for The Sword was originally by wuxia novelist Wong Ying. Tam said that Golden Harvest requested for a wuxia film, which was what Adam Cheng was known for acting in at the time. Both Cheng and Norman Chui were popular television actors in Hong Kong at the time.
Tam organised the action scenes in the film to have less of the "strike followed by strike" style of action choreography, and banned the use of zoom shots that were common in wuxia films at the time. Tang said in a 1980 interview in City Entertainment Film Biweekly that he wanted to create ambience and atmosphere for the film. This included banning zoom shots in The Sword.
