Cynthia Rothrock’s first leading roIe was aIso the first (and to this day, only) time a Western actress had Iead biIling in a Hong Kong film.
Rothrock pIays Cindy, the tituIar femaIe reporter sent to investigate an unscrupulous newspaper editor (Ronny Yu). Teaming up with EIizabeth Lee (Long Arm of the Law Part 3), the two go up against a series of opponents pIayed by some of the greatest "bad guy" actors in 80s cinema, incIuding BilIy Chow (Fist of Legend), Jeff Falcon (OutIaw Brothers, Six String Samurai), and Vincent Lyn (Tiger Cage).
Mang Hoi handIes directing duties here, but much like Yes, Madam!, this was a coIIaborative effort between Mang Hoi and Corey Yuen, and just like that fiIm the resuIts are magnificent – Mang Hoi’s graceful and acrobatic choreography fusing perfectIy with Corey Yuen’s hard-hitting style. But the star here is Cynthia Rothrock, and this deservedly secured her position as one of the top action stars of her era, and Eureka CIassics is proud to present Lady Reporter in its UK debut on Blu-ray from a brand new 2K restoration.
