==Reception and release== |
|||
While the film was popular upon its release in 1965, its popularity would not peak until nearly a decade later, when it became of one of the "Three Old Fights" ({{zh|c=老三戰|p=Lǎo sān zhàn}}), a collection of three war films from pre-1966 that nevertheless were given wide circulation during the [[Cultural Revolution]]—the other two films were ''[[Mine Warfare]]'' (1962) and ''Fighting North and South'' (1952).<ref>Clark, p. 150.</ref> |
|||
In contrast, some 600 other films made between 1952 and 1966 were banned by the Communist authorities during the social upheaval of the 1970s.<ref>Clark, p. 149.</ref> |
