"Flying Dao Hua" brilliantly interprets the tenacious chivalrous spirit of jianghu artists. At that time, many people applauded the magical "flying knife" stunts in the movie and shouted incredulously.
However, after watching the movie, some children in society blindly imitated the skills of flying knives, and for a time all kinds of knives became props for practicing "flying knives", which not only caused casualties, but also induced some criminal acts. Many newspapers and radio stations at that time reported some negative effects of "Flying Dao Hua". Therefore, the relevant parties ordered the suspension of the screening of "Flying Dao Hua", which now seems very regrettable.
A "Jiazi" is about to pass, and now, the actor in the movie subtitles is alive, and everyone else has passed away.
