You are bidding on a Ivy Ling Po THE THREE SMILES Li Ching HK 1969 Comedy 凌波 李菁 井淼 陳燕燕 岳楓 三笑 DVD

A popular Chinese romance gets adapted to the glorious big screen in The Three Smiles, a Huangmei opera that's both charming and timeless. Ivy Ling Bor has the gender-bending lead role as Tang Bohu, a famous scholar who masquerades as peasant Hua An to worm his way into the life of pretty maiden Autumn Fragrance (Li Jing), who resides in the court of Lady Hua, wife of the Grand Tutor. Bohu's desire is spurred by the eponymous "three smiles", which were smiles delivered to Bohu by Autumn Fragrance on three separate occasions. However, once he enters the court of Lady Hua, it's not so easy for a peasant to gain the notice of a maiden! Featuring charming Mandarin songs and gorgeous costumes and set designs, The Three Smiles was a major Hong Kong Cinema hit and one of the most beloved films to emerge from the Shaw Brothers vaults. In 1993, the same story behind The Three Smiles served as the blueprint for the blockbuster nonsense comedy Flirting Scholar, starring Stephen Chow and Gong Li.
