Soul of the Sword

"Be careful what you wish for" sums up The Soul of The Sword, which stars acclaimed actor Ti Lung as a swordsman whose sole purpose is to defeat "The Number One" swordsman, no matter what. The warrior's code dictates, to be number one there must be nobody else in life, so he gives up his lover and only to learn that "wanting is better than having" and that the terrorism of tradition in the end makes you lose.
