Success Film (H.K.) Company Ltd

A troupe of comedians, including midgets, provide entertainment and kung fu trouble for the villains.

The Crane Fighter is set just after the majority of the Shaolin monks have been outlawed and killed by the, I think, Ching Dynasty. A few have escaped, and live secretly among the common people. One old guy has a daughter that he has forbidden to learn kung fu, but she does so anyway, by watching some other monks in a nearby temple.
