The Bride Napping

Movie · 2h 8m

Starring Betty Loh Ti, Ding Ling, Kiu Chong, Diana Chang Chung-Wen

The romance of a squire's daughter and a poor but refined scholar is thwarted when a loutish bandit is mistaken for the scholar by a confused servant and is given the idea that the daughter's hand in marriage is his for the asking. Rich in cross-dressing, mistaken identities, and reversals of gender roles, the film playfully subverts traditional Confucian values.
