Huangmei Opera movies like "The Pearl Phoenix" are unique to 1960s Hong Kong culture, a product of the "Swinging Sixties" but considerably more in touch with their Chinese roots. This one is complete with a gender-bending tale where the male lead is played by a female and the female lead poses as a man, plus movie queen Li Ching and the singing voices of Ivy Ling Po and Jing Ting. Sit back and enjoy!
