Drunken Master

Description

Drunken Master is a 1978 comedy and martial arts motion picture starring Hong Kong actors Jackie Chan, Yun Siu-tien (Simon Yuen) and Hwang Jang Lee. This film is a fictional story about legendary Chinese figure Wong Fei Hung, and set when he was a teenager. Fei Hung (or Freddie in the English-dubbed version) was a very mischievous young man and often got into trouble. He was delinquent in his studies and often played pranks on others. Fed up, his father, Kei Ying arranges for him to be trained under his friend, Beggar So (Sam Seed in other versions). He is renowned both for his martial art style, Drunken Fist as well as his alleged penchant for over-training students to the point where they become crippled. While running away from home to avoid his punishment, Fei Hung still inadvertently meets Beggar So (dressed up as a beggar no less), and begins his training.
