Linda Lin Dai is great in this as a woman putting on an act. She pretends to be seductive to the emperor Chou who she had just married and who executed her father. (He's a slimy guy.) However, she is really into revenge. I saw her in Love without End and that was an entirely different role. It's a shame that she killed herself at 30 for she was an actress with great promise. I got this at yesasia.com. I wish these movies were more available to the public. Instead, I had to buy a multi-region player. I suggest that if you want to get into Asian musicals from the 60's or the Shaw Brothers to purchase one.
