Today's film was #TheMagnificentButcher (1979) by Yeun Woo-Ping. On Criterion. I watched bc I had never heard of the Dir nor the lead, Sammo Kam-Bo Hung. Plus I needed an aesthetics palette cleanse. The martial arts / fight scenes are deceptively complex. All fun & games til the murder scene #nfotd

Watching #TheMagnificentButcher reminded me of an idea/wish I had years ago: for someone to do a documentary on the history of fight sequences in film. In really old films, a character could hit another with a chair and they'd be unconscious for hours. Now bullet wounds won't stop someone in a fight
