(Synopsis)
This retelling of legendary swordsman Chu Liu-Hsiang is elevated by novelist Ku Lung's strong story, striking visuals by the vaunted director, but especially a first rate cast led by the majestic Ti Lung. He must hazard treacherous warriors and even a cross-gendered monk to solve the murder of three clan leaders. All that, and the presence of Nora Miao, fresh from her triumphs on Bruce Lee's films, made this a 1977 top-five box office hit and an amazing treat today.
CLANS OF INTRIGUE is another movie adapted from a novel by Gu Long and directed by Chor Yuen (like MAGIC BLADE and KILLER CLANS, and many others). Ti Lung has the lead role, as noble thief and master fighter Chu Liu Hsiang. He learns that he has been framed for the murder of several clan leaders, and has one month to try and clear his name. His search into the truth about the deaths in the clans does indeed uncover many layers of intrigue.
