7th Old School Kung Fu Fest: Wonder Women of Martial Arts
August 18-20, 2017 at Metrograph / co-presented with Metrograph
It’s the seventh edition of Subway Cinema’s Old School Kung Fu Fest, a perennially wild weekend of incredible classic martial arts and action movies, and for this lucky year we’ve got something extra special: “Wonder Women of the Martial Arts,” featuring some of the fiercest female warriors to ever grace kung fu cinema, a wellspring of tough gals. Female empowerment has never been this thrillingly cathartic, so come cheer along stalwart chop-socky heroines such as Angela Mao, Cheng Pei Pei, and Kara Hui Ying Hung as they triumphantly trounce scenery-chewing baddies (mostly misguided macho men, no doubt) with vengeful gusto!
