The Kuleshov effect is a film editing (montage) effect demonstrated by Soviet filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in the 1910s and 1920s.
 It is a mental phenomenon by which viewers derive more meaning from the interaction of two sequential shots than from a single shot in isolation.
The Death Ray (Russian: Луч смерти , "Luch smerti " ) is a 1925 Soviet science fiction film directed by Lev Kuleshov.
 The first and last reels of the film have been lost.

Lo Wei (sometimes spelled Lo Wai, 12 December 1918 – 20 January 1996) was a Hong Kong film director and film actor best known for launching the martial arts film careers of both Bruce Lee, in "The Big Boss" and "Fist of Fury", and Jackie Chan, in "New Fist of Fury".
The Happy Canary or The Gay Canary (Russian: Весёлая канарейка , "Vesyolaya kanareyka " ) is a 1929 Soviet silent adventure film directed by Lev Kuleshov and starring Galina Kravchenko, Andrey Fayt and Ada Vojtsik.
To Kill with Intrigue (Chinese: 劍花煙雨江南) is a Kung Fu 1977 Hong Kong action film, directed by Lo Wei.
 In the movie's plot, Chin Chang Yin (Feng Hsu) leads a gang known as the Killer Bees on a revenge mission to kill Cao Lei's (Jackie Chan) family.
 However, she kills everyone but Cao Lei and falls in love with him.
 Jackie mentions, in his book "I Am Jackie Chan", how much of the plot is confusing, and he was sure that even the director, Lo Wei, didn't even know what was going on.
 He has also gone on to express that tensions between himself and the director along with the generally cold weather at the time of filming made for a frustrating experience.
 The movie was filmed in Korea.
New Fist of Fury is a 1976 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by Lo Wei and starring Jackie Chan.
 It is the first of several films that Lo directed Chan in, and the first using Chan's stage name Sing Lung (literally meaning "becoming a dragon", by which Chan is still known today in Asia).
 The film gave Chan his first starring role in a widely released film (his first starring role was in the "Little Tiger of Canton" which only had a limited release in 1973).
 The film was a sequel to Bruce Lee's "Fist of Fury", one of Lo Wei's biggest successes.
 "New Fist of Fury" was part of Lo's attempt to market Jackie Chan as the new Bruce Lee and did not contain any of the comedy elements that were to be Chan's career trademark later on.
Lev Vladimirovich Kuleshov (Russian: Лев Влади́мирович Кулешо́в ; 13 January [O.S. 1 January] 1899 – 29 March 1970) was a Russian and Soviet filmmaker and film theorist, one of the founders of the world's first film school, the Moscow Film School.
 He was given the title People's Artist of the RSFSR in 1969.
 He was intimately involved in development of the style of film making known as Soviet montage, especially it's psychological underpinning, including the use of editing and the cut to emotionally influence the audience, a principle known as the Kuleshov effect.
 He also developed the theory of creative geography, which is the use of the action around a cut to connect otherwise disparate settings into a cohesive narrative.
Magnificent Bodyguards is a 1978 Hong Kong martial arts action film starring Jackie Chan and directed by Lo Wei.
 Chan, along with Luk Chuen also worked as stunt coordinators.
 This film was well received in Hong Kong, but Chan himself doesn't like it.
 He puts it down to Lo Wei not giving him any creative freedom.
 This was the first film in Hong Kong to be filmed using 3-D technology, and it features music from "Star Wars".
