Hello all! tried to figure this out without having to create a thread but here goes. As we age we remember some of the things we grew up watching with our parents and this is no different. I used to watch the Sunday Kung Fu cinema with my father and brother years ago and there is one particular movie that we all watched we sometime speak of but cannot remember the name of the film. The one scene that comes to mind is during a training montage, there is a fighter with a long braid. If memory serves right, at some point he loosely wraps the braid around his neck area. He is standing shirtless in what looks like a gazebo and all of a sudden there are 4 wooden walls that he has to punch through only to be met with closer and closer walls until he can barely swing punches and eventually still punches out. I also recall where the fighter tries to eat rice from a bowl and has a hard time with it i believe. We can only remember this part of the film. I wish we could recall more but the last time we watched the film was probably 1986 or so. Thank you for any help!

i don't recognize the scene you described, so i don't think i've seen that movie. i would suggest that you start by looking through the shaw brothers films--a good chance that one of them is what you're looking for, seeing as they made a LOT of wuxia films! here's a playlist from youtube with a lot of SB wuxia films available for viewing: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpC4Agb4nClGb9gbNeWXZOd7gaAr8L9aU good luck!

It reminds me of Wei Pai training in Two Champions of Shaolin. and Lo Meng being unable to eat the rice because he trained on his fingers.

I don't remember Two Champions of Shaolin having such a scene.
Maybe you mean Invincible Shaolin(Bei Shaolin yu Nan Shaolin) which is another movie also with Lo Mang?
lockleer1 The scene you could be looking for could be one in which the actor Ti Lung doing some sort of Wing Chun training in the Shaolin temple from a SB movie? Usually scenes like these where the wall is too near is supposed to represent a Wing Chun close-range punch. Or it could be a scene from a SB movie where the actor is not Ti Lung and the location is not the Shaolin temple but it is still a WC training scene. The only other remaining film in which there is no WC training but has a unique training scene with punches is Crippled Avengers. But I don't recall moving walls.
