Lady Whirlwind Lobbycards

Before Michelle Yeoh, before Zhang Ziyi, there was one queen of kung fu cinema: Angela Mao! Reel East are proud to celebrate the legacy of filmdom’s most lethal female with The Angela Mao Collection.

‘Lady Whirlwind’ launched Angela Mao as the new queen of martial arts action. Shot on location in Korea, it showed off Mao’s newly acquired hapkido skills, and attracted the attention and appreciation of Bruce Lee, the Asian region’s greatest action hero.

With a Spaghetti Western premise, the film presents Mao as the fastest foot in town as she seeks to avenger her sister’s death.

The action was choreographed by legendary martial arts director Sammo Hung,  who also appears in the movie.

Reel East are proud to celebrate this kung fu klassic by making these 12 lobbycards, printed by Golden Harvest for the 1972 release of the film, available to Angela’s worldwide fanbase.
