[[caption-width-right:350:Who knew the "Three '''X''' and a Baby" formula dates back to the Ming Dynasty?]]
''Raw Courage'' is a 1969 {{Wuxia}} martial arts film starring Creator/ChengPeiPei, Yueh Hua (one of their many, many collaborations in martial arts movies, common as it is in the late 60s/early 70s) and Ng Fung.
An attempt to usurp the Ming Emperor's throne by the sinister martial artist simply known as "Old Monster" and his armies results in most of the palace being massacred, and the emperor's infant son, the prince, in the hands of the Shangguan family who have sworn their lives to serve the Imperial court, with their daughter, Shangguan Hsiu-yi (Cheng) bearing the responsibility of bringing the infant prince to the capital city for reinforcements. Tagging along with her is the warrior Chin Chen Hsiung (Fung), and as they try their best to evad eenmy spies who wants the emperor's bloodline wiped out, unexpected help comes in the form of wandering swordsman and veteran badass of the martial arts world, Chou Fei-yun (Yueh Hua).
Will the three heroes be able to secure the baby prince all the way to the Imperial city?
-----
!!''Raw Courage'' provides the following tropes:
* ActionGirl: Shangguan Hsiu-yi, played by the ever-badass Cheng Pei-pei.
* BadassAndBaby: The PowerTrio of Hsiu-yi, Fei-yun and Chen-hsiung have to make their way to the Imperial capital while carrying the Emperor’s baby son, who is being pursued by enemies all over the place.
* BeneathTheEarth: Near the end of the movie there’s an extended fight scene in a series of underground tunnels.
* BigBadDuumvirate: The East Sea Clan Chief Old Monster leading the invading army, Yu Hua-chiao of the "Scarf" Clan who wants the emperor’s royal seal, and the villainous Old Monster.
* CaveBehindTheFalls: The PowerTrio took a break behind one of these in the forest after fleeing from enemy soldiers.
* CoffinContraband: After their close shave with enemy soldiers at an earlier checkpoint, the PowerTrio inevitably have to cross a forest with another checkpoint. At which point they decide to pose as funeral pallbearers, Fei-yun and Chen-hsiung carrying a coffin (whose bottom had a hole to allow breathing) containing Hsiu-yi and the baby prince. [[spoiler: It doesn’t work, she ends up jumping out the coffin when enemy soldiers try to inspect it. Cue epic fight scene]].

*DarkActionGirl: Hua-chiao, the EvilCounterpart to Hsiu-yi. [[spoiler: Their DesignatedGirlFight turns out to be a hilariously short CurbStompBattle where Hsiu-yi kills Hua-chiao in less than four seconds]].

* EvilAlbino: Old Monster, the BigBad, whose skin is pale silver and is the main antagonist who wants the baby prince dead at all costs.
* HeroicSecondWind: [[spoiler: The Beggar clan, emperor’s reinforcements and LaResistance arriving in the underground caves where Hsiu-yi and Fei-yun are fighting off the remnants of Old Monster’s army]].
* HighPressureBlood: Mostly averted, but played straight when [[spoiler: Old Monster gets Mo Wen Tien’s staff shoved through his back, and resulting in a small blood geyser when the staff is pulled out]].
* InASingleBound: Most named characters can scale tall structures such as guard towers and fortress walls just by jumping; Hsiu-yi, Fei-yun, Chen-hsiung, Old Monster, but then again this is a 70s wuxia so it’s not really that surprising.
* MamaBear: Hsiu-yi spends most of the film kicking ass while ''carrying the baby prince'' on her back, and will slaughter every enemy who threatens the baby’s life. In contrast, the two men barely spend any time with the baby at all.
* NoNameGiven: The BigBad is simply called Old Monster. Kinda ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin too, given his character.

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Fei-yun and Chen-hsiung doesn’t really agree to each other’s decisions, and more than once both men nearly end up fighting each other before Hsiu-yi tells them to quit it.
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: Even better: Kicking Your Sword into Your Enemies Always Works!
* TwoGuysAndAGirl
* WeNeedADistraction: When Hsiu-yi and Chen-hsiung (both disguised as farmers) unsuccessfully tries to bluff their way past a checkpoint and ends up having enemy soldiers demanding for them to remove their hats and coats which they’re using to disguise themselves, Fei-yun (who follows a minute later behind) immediately steals a horse from the enemy soldiers’ sergeant, creating a brief confusion so his two partners can escape.
