(1979)Directed by King Hu121 minAction, Adventure, Drama

In the Ming Dynasty, a Buddhist monastery in the mountains prepares for its retiring abbot to name a successor. He invites two dignitaries, Esquire Wen An (Sun Yueh) and General Wang Chi (Tien Feng), to help him choose. King Hu fills the temple with courtyards, corridors and doorways, and Hsu Feng's White Fox moves through them, each guest having quietly hired someone to take the priceless parchment kept inside.
