Blue and the Black 2, The (shaw Brothers reg.3) ***OFFERTA IMPORT

Released two years after its star’s suicide, the sequel to the original box office hit becomes all the more moving because of it. Set during World War II, it follows a singer who searches battle-scarred China for her lover, who is entangled with Japanese invaders, communist insurgents, and a warlord’s beautiful daughter. See if you can spot Elsie Tu, the lead’s double and a future Shaw Brothers star, who substituted in scenes completed after Linda Lin Dai’s death.
