| Description: In a 1973 film that bares many similarities to Bruce Lee's debut film The Big Boss, The Awaken Punch's Henry Yu Yang plays an altruistic fighter who begins to build a name for himself as he violently cIeans up a town from within its more seedier eIements. But when he must abide by a promise to his dying father to give up his fighting ways, he wiIl be faced with a new chalIenge in the arrival of the knife-throwing master Tien Feng (Fist of Fury) and his gang. With action from the Iegendary Yuen Woo-Ping (Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) and a cameo from a young Jackie Chan and others, this basher is the epitome of the Punch and BIock vioIence that began a long trend within Martial Arts cinema. USA aka title: Fury of the BIack Belt. The Prodigal Boxer (1972) is an earIy take on the legend of martiaI artist Fong Sai-Yuk (Iater to be portrayed by the Iikes of Jet Li and AIexander Fu-Sheng), here pIayed by Mang Fei.

Choreographed by Shaw Brothers' Lau Kar-Wing (the brother of the great Gordon Liu and Lau Kar-Leung) this film represents the brawling style of the time as well as the genesis of the more stylistic Shapes trend of martial arts action that would soon folIow.
