Shaw Brothers wuxia film directed byChang Cheh and starringCheng Pei Pei ,Lo Lieh andJimmy Wang Yu . The film is a sequel to "Come Drink with Me ".Plot
"Golden Swallow" (which was also known by its less than fitting title, "The Girl With The Thunderbolt Kick") revolves around the further adventures of its title character, Golden Swallow (Cheng Pei Pei). This time around, she's forced into violence when a figure from her mysterious past goes on a killing rampage while leaving evidence that holds her responsible. "Golden Swallow" also makes room for a heartfelt love triangle involving a mad, but righteous swordsman named Silver Roc (Jimmy Wang Yu) and a gentle warrior named Golden Whip (Lo Lieh). The three team up to conquer the evil forces of the martial world, but their joint venture only lasts so long, due to the two men's virile egos. Ultimately, a duel to the death is planned between them, leaving Golden Swallow caught between two men, both of whom she admires.
