In the third installment that Old Monster Xu took over by himself, the aesthetics of violence has weakened, and his gunfight scenes are all fake and silly. But with the addition of Anita Mui, the worldview has been pulled back to his best son and daughter. The emotional setting has become fuller. All the parting and reunion scenes brought tears to my eyes. The scene where the heroine puts on a trench coat for the little brother is more emotional than the first two. Nixon came to power, North Vietnam attacked Saigon, and the cultural revolution and other era marks were clearly added, which are also rare in Hong Kong films. A Sunset Song brought the series' influence to its peak. It was not until today that I realized why this song became so popular back then. Brothers and sisters who were about ten years older than us used to hum this song as a fashion pioneer!
