As Chan \u0026amp; Hung’s star started to rise, however, Biao’s career started to take off as well. His first solo starring role came in 1979’s Knockabout, but Prodigal Son is the movie that really set him apart as a leading man in his own right.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eBiao’s performance as the young, prideful scion of a wealthy family, who must learn humility and true martial arts may feel like something of a cliche, but it’s rarely if ever been done with so much style and emotion. A great turn from underrated talents Ching-Ying Lam and Frankie Chan make this an essential piece of any martial arts movie collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38;
