Overview

Two warriors on a mission to recover a precious stolen sword cross paths with a mysterious yet highly skilled adversary. Ang Lee’s Oscar-winning love letter to wuxia cinema is exquisitely choreographed – featuring breathtaking swordfights that see stars Chow Yun-fat, Michelle Yeoh and Ziyi Zhang float through the air. It’s also a deeply romantic film. Action has rarely looked this beautiful or felt so magical.
