Just took a look at the beginning of Crippled Avengers and I think it's from that film. You can see this set right at the beginning of the film. HKMDB says the film came out December 21, 1978. Chiang Sheng's birthday, also according to HKMDB, is April 27, 1951. So my guess is that either this is from April 1978 or it's not Chiang Sheng's birthday and it's from a bit later in the year.

I believe that's at Shaw's. Those chili peppers on either side of the moon gate show up in a few films, definitely in Flag of Iron that I can think of. It shouldn't be that hard to figure out what film this is from because of Chiang Sheng's hair.

I think that he had that same hair style in "Masked Avengers".

Thanks @thekfc & @panku, my Shaw Brothers knowledge is limited at best.

Chen Kuen Ti and Ti Lung, sporting some awsome early 70's fashion.

Anyone know what Ma Chao-Hsing movie, this still has been taken from?.

No problem, you'd think they would have at least picked a photo of them smiling at least.

Indeed! On the other hand, that makes it even more fun :))

Ti Lung looks like his girlfriend just walked off with another guy, at the Shaws Brothers Christmas party. .

This is the best thread ever. Seeing those photos of Lau Kar Leung behind the scenes with the actors makes me realize how lucky they were to learn from a real master.

The same set is also used in Flag of Iron released in August of 1980.  I am not sure how fast they turned out films back then. Slim chance they could have been working on Flag.
