A Chinese Ghost Story

A Chinese Ghost Story (Ch. 《倩女幽魂》, pinyin: qian4 nü3 you1 hun2, literal meaning: "The Spirit of a Beauty") is a 1987 Hong Kong movie starring Leslie Cheung, Joey Wong[?] and Wu Ma[?], directed by Ching Siu-tung[?] and produced by Tsui Hark.

The story was inspired (but extensively modified) by and could be considered a loose cinematic presentation of the Ming Dynasty novelist[?] Pu Songling[?]'s Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio[?].
