武館

故事簡介

劉家良七十與八十年代的黃飛鴻電影，開出新保守主義路線。舊價值如何在新世代、新社會中保存意義？劉家良帶出規矩與鍛煉等大命題，一一在《陸阿采與黃飛鴻》(1976)及《武館》有貫徹的反映。《武館》一開首就由劉家良面向觀眾，說明會獅的規矩與精神，向普羅大眾講道理之餘，亦有奇觀式的疊羅漢舞獅表演，寓教育於娛樂，兩者缺一不可。片中黃飛鴻（劉家輝飾）是少年人，好勝好強，經過重重考驗，終於在狹窄的巷道中面對挑戰，證明自己，突顯武德與武術，同樣重要。（本片乃「香港神話：黃飛鴻電影」節目之一）

Martial Club

Synopsis

Martial Club is a work of balance. The story of the mythic figure Wong Fei-hung’s youth, the film posits the making of a master on his learning to temper the violent and ego-inflating nature of fighting skills with the martial code of hard work, humility and integrity. The code articulates the convictions of director Lau Kar-leung, in real life a third-generation student of Master Wong and a dedicated disciple of the martial spirit. He skillfully moderates his manifesto with film’s mandate to entertain, staging Wong’s coming of age with a masterfully calibrated trajectory of funny youthful antics and beautifully choreographed action towards a final showdown of gravitas. Lau had faithfully played the villain in numerous Wong Fei-hung films, and his ascent to a master’s role in the myth’s making is a Hong Kong success story. (This film is part of the “Once Upon a Hero: The Wong Fei-hung Saga” programme)
