The Jade Hairpin
1967, Chinese. Directed by Cheng Tung-Shan.
Convinced of infidelity, the scholar Wang Yulin refuses to consummate his marriage to Xiuying, the only daughter of the Secretary of Defense, subjecting her to constant humiliation. After enduring a long period of mistreatment by Yulin, Xiuying finally uncovers the plot behind the hairpin with help from her father, and a guilt-ridden Yulin crawls back for forgiveness. This film marks the first co-starring appearance of Yang Li-hua and Ye Qing, two legends of televised Gezaixi (Gezai opera). Yang delivers memorable performances of classic pieces, and her distinctive artistry is further showcased during her first outdoor filming experience, which captures the journey to the capital examinations.
