The film that established Jackie Chan’s career is also a perfect example of the movies that influenced hip-hop’s pioneers. It mixes comedy, amazing martial arts action sequences, and the kind of charismatic, athletic performance that has made Chan a superstar. He plays the aimless Wong Fei-hung (an actual Chinese folk hero), whose father employs a fearsome martial arts master to discipline him through instruction in the mysterious “drunken boxing” technique. (dir.: Yuen Wo-ping, 1978, 110 min., Cantonese with English subtitles)
