Ti Lung

One of the Shaw’s great stars, a tall and handsome favorite of Chang Cheh, often paired with David Chiang (as fire to Chiang’s ice). I always mispronounce his name because of its similarity to the villain of Kung Fu Panda.

Shaolin Prince (1982):
Plays Dao Xing, older of the two princes who are raised in exile after their parents are killed by the usurping Ninth Prince, Iron Fingers (Pai Piao). Raised by the three Holy Fools (Lam Fai-Wong, Alan Chan, and Ma Chao) and taught the obscure Yijing style by them from infancy, a bit of an ultimate ass-kicker who doesn’t seem really ever to have needed his brother’s (Derek Yee’s) help, but was nice enough to let him tag along.
