Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 臥虎藏龍
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has no shortage of breathtaking battles, but it also has the dramatic soul of a Greek tragedy and the sweep of an epic romance. It is the work of director Ang Lee, who fell in love with movies while watching Kung Fu films as a youngster and made Crouching Tiger as a tribute to the genre.
An epic set against the breathtaking landscapes of ancient China, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, combines exhilarating martial arts choreography by Yuen Wo-Pind with the sensitivity and classical storytelling of an Ang Lee film. The result is something truly unexpected: romantic, emotionally powerful entertainment.
