[NeedMyKungFu]

Ok.. Now I know I'm not crazy. This is my original question:
I'm looking for the Title of a Kung Fu Movie where a poor young man steals the shoes of a dead man after a fight, I believe in a restaurant. From then on he cherishes those shoes and during other fight scenes he stops to dust them off. In the end scene, he wipes his shoes off one more time before he dies. It's not Disciples of Shaolin because I bought it but it's not the right movie. I appreciate any help because it's my favorite Kung Fu Flick ever and it only aired once!! Thanks!!

I found this question posted in another forum(Nov.2008)@(kungfucinema.com) asked by someone named Kesagiri: Hi I'm new here and new to forums. I'm looking for a movie and it's not the Bare Foot Kid. I can only tell you about this film. I would really like the name of this film. This old Kung Fu film starts like this. A young man comes to town poor and dirty. A close up of his feet as he comes into town. Some how in the film the kid gets cleaned up and he gets new shoes. The kid gets in to a lot of fights and he's good. However, in every fight he has to keep his shoes clean. He throws a kick and steps back to clean of his shoe. It becomes his thing. //// SPOILER ALERT //// Now the sad part he fights a master in this film and he kills the master I think. however, he dies too and his last act is to clean of his shoe but he can't reach. This is all I have in my head about this film. Can some one out there help?

This confirms I did not make up this movie. It exists! Unforunately no one had an answer for Kesagiri either. What we do know is that it's not Disciples of Shaolin or the remake: The Barefoot Kid. Someone out there has to know and I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!!
