Come Drink with Me

1966 · 91 min

A graceful, old-fashioned martial-arts adventure with elegant swordplay, a wry drunkard hero, and a quietly stirring sense of honour.

Overview: Golden Sparrow is a fighter-for-hire who has been contracted by the local government to retrieve the governor's kidnapped son. Holding him is a group of rebels who are demanding that their leader be released from prison in return for the captured son. After a brief encounter with the gang at a local restaurant, Golden Sparrow is joined by an inebriated wanderer Drunken Cat who aids her in her mission.
