If you loved The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, try The Legend of Drunken Master
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Lau Kar-Leung, and they both carry the foreign gem, playful, uplifting mood tags, and they sit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Legend of Drunken Master is
Hong Kong streets, summer heat, a suitcase full of contraband. Wong Fei-Hong faces foreigners and his disapproving father. Lau Kar-Leung choreographs chaos with ease.
