ISLAND LIFE SHORTS
Kung Fu cinema

Advertiser Staff and News Services

A week and change of Shaw Brothers Studios classic martial-arts films at Doris Duke Theatre continues tonight with "My Young Auntie" at 7:30.

A dispute about family property goes to extremes when a young widow (who's also a smokin' martial-arts master) wants to hand over the deed to its rightful heirs.

Kung-fu mayhem and high comedy ensue; Gordon Liu shows up. Call 532-8768.
