Wuxia romance film
"The Sword (1980) is basically a wuxia romance film similar to a lot of the stuff you see on Hong Kong, Chinese, Taiwanese tv these days. Romance themes, bright colors, period costumes etc. The sword-fighting is swishy rather than realistic and the action is more wire-work than human-powered. A solid enough period romance wuxia film...."
