The history of Hong Kong martial arts cinema contains many stories based on real life figures. These stories elevate them to almost mythical status as they become something more. Standing head above all the others is the recurring figure of Wong Fei Hung. For modern audiences, the most fondly remembered portrayals are by Jet Li and Jackie Chan. Yet Kwan Tak-hing is probably the one most defined by the role, playing him countless times from the 1950's onwards. “The Skyhawk” is one of the final instances and his last in a leading role. It is also one of the key films in the movement towards the modern martial arts film as transcends the generations with the torch being passed on whist respecting the whole ethos of the character that Wong Fei-hung represents.
