Come Drink With Me

When Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon hit the scene, Ang Lee claimed King Hu as an influence. This led to a small surge in interest in Hu among Western audiences. You can definitely see that Hu has affected Lee if you watch a few of his films. Come Drink With Me is one of the better known of Hu's films, probably because it was release by Dragon Dynasty. Though this isn't Hu's best work, it's a pretty good film, and I would definitely recommend it to anybody that has an interest in wuxia films.
