Hi everyone,
It's been years i'm searching an old wu xia pian movie (i'd say from 1965 to 1980) whose history has been a bit of a shame, but I remember that it happens rather in the Era medieval, and there was a warrior / demon (or ghost ?) dressed in white, short black hair, pale skin and cold glare), who with combinations with his hands (like in Naruto) can become invulnerable to enemy attacks (swords pass through him as on a hologram) or can parry the swords with bare hands. He looks absolutely invincible. In my memories he stays silent. I remember being amazed by the beauty of the fighting and especially by the techniques of this character. Voila, I hope someone knows this movie because all my previous research has failed. I know i didn't provide lot of hints but i try my luck.
Thank you in advance.

Could you recognize the actor ?
Could it be Chen Hung Lieh ? He plays a kind of ghost role, wearing white clothes and looking invincible in the movie The scholar swordsman, if I'm not mistaken.
Since you use the word " voilà ", I wonder if you could be French ? If so, we are two, and by the way, welcome to the forum !

Merci pour ta réponse reinafu! Oui je suis français je savais pas que le site l'était également! Cool! Je vais continuer en anglais si tu veux bien, que tout le monde puisse lire et aussi pour travailler mon anglais . Unfortunately, i checked The Scolar swordsman and it ain't the film i'm looking for. In my memories the "demon" doesn't have long hairs. No beard or moustache, smooth-shaven. One hint i also remember is a kind of white/Clear Blue-grey aura just on him, as if he was an Hologram. I'd say he has kind of Chang Yu face. I checked his filmography but didn't find the movie i'm talking about. So i can't say it's him. I'm very surprised how this movie is impossible to find because from what i can remember it was an ovni! I never saw another movie like that. I'm not neccesarily talking about scenario but the demon is so charismatic and the tricks he's doing with his hands (hand sign seals/Mudras) and materializing and dematerializing abilities just fascinated me. I saw it in 1998 at my uncle's home but he lost it and since i'm trying to find it. Honestly i think i spent several days to search it on the net since 2005 if i compile all the tries. I'm desperate. I hope i'll see it again before i die.

It's just me who is French. This site is...well, siuyiu, Admin, chefying, is this site Chinese ? The clues regarding the actor's use of his hands and weapons passing through him sound familiar to me, but I don't see what this movie can be...If you saw it in 1998, do you remember if it was a recent movie of this era that just came out, or an old movie from the 70's-80's that was shown on tv ?

Oh ok! I just noticed you said "we are two" and i thought you mean "we are too" at first read!
Even when i watched it in 1998 he looked old. From the colours of the movie (pretty pale, between black & white and colours) i'd say between 1965 and 1975 but here again it's been 20 years i saw it so i can't be sure. But i'm 100% sure it was before 1990.

Well, I would say this site is for everyone - but I qualify my words by saying I am not the owner nor creator of this site. I am sure Admin would welcome everyone. As for the Chinese part, I can only say that wuxia (as I know it) is very much Chinese, so the films referred to are mainly Chinese productions. Along the same lines, the terminology is also very much Chinese. But I would say most of us here know more English than French. I can tell you for sure that I know only about 20 words of French. Pardon moi, Mademoiselle, I apologize in advance, but you have to understand I am a rather unrefined guy, so one of the 20 words of French I know is "merde". And with the greeting "bonne nuit", I have used up 25 percent of my French vocabulary.

I am afraid I cannot think of a film with a theme or character you described above. I hope you find it soon!

hello...no the website is not a Chinese site, and the website is not using China IP also. Actually this site can't be accessed in China without VPN. Welcome to wuxia forum matsuda.
