Li Mu Bai, a great warrior decides to turn in his sword, the Green Destiny to a treasured friend. When the sword is then stolen, it is up to him to retrieve it. At the same time he is trying to avenge his master's death by the evil Jade Fox. He is joined in his quest by Shu Lien, the un-conceded love of his life. During all of this, they are introduced to Jiao Long Yu, the mysterious and beautiful daughter of a well known family. She is the mysterious link to all these tales. But through all the many subplots, this is in essence, a love story.
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is a timeless story that takes place in QING China when miracles were credible and spirits and gods were present in man's world. It is not unbelievable that zen warriors float through the air, skim the water and battle in trees and on rooftops. Pain, revenge and duty are the stuff that bind us in this world and are the main plot line of the movie, but in the afterlife love and faith linger on.
Anxiously I check my local movie listings almost daily. It hasn't come to my town and I can't wait to see Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon again on the big screen. I happened to catch it the day after Christmas in the DC area (hmmm, maybe I'll have to drive back up there). This is far and away the best movie I've seen in probably 5 or 6 years. I really want it to do well at the awards and I see it already is...I'm so pleased Ang Lee is getting the recognition he so richly deserves for this film!!!
One of the first things that every actor learns at the beginning of their path, is that any physical action is a direct result of will. This somewhat vague phrase is the real basis behind Ang Lee's new film, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, sadly misunderstood and mistaken by many to be a kung-fu or action film.
The film, presented in almost lyrical form, would be hard to understand for western eyes, such as my own. I know a few people who completely misunderstood the plot, and praised the movie for its action sequences. However, as I have mentioned before, these action sequences are not to be taken as stand-alone, as sadly most action-oriented movies have been asking us to do, lately. To fully realize how wonderful this movie is, one must look at the flight of swords as a dance, brought on by the conflicting viewpoints of the two warriors, Li Mu Bai and young Jen, as the aged warrior holds a stoic taoist calmness even as his sword flickers with the speed of an arrow throughout his battles to tame the tiger.
The true wisdom of the film can be discovered only by listening to the poetic lines that Yun-Fat Chow cleverly intersperses into his conversations, pearls that must be sought after. The struggle is transformed into a song which IS the movie, constructed in the same way that chinese legends had been told for ten thousand generations. The cultural gap between the west and the orient will make this task much harder to perform, but when truly deciphered, the movie takes on a completely different form.
While the story itself is sung to the audience, the brilliantly coordinated fight-scenes weave it together to create a complete entity. Neither may be taken separately, otherwise the movie will lose its original meaning. I take my hat off for Hui-Ling Wang, Kuo Jung Tsai and James Schamus, for transforming the wonderful book into a screenplay, and for Ang Lee, that has made a two hour film about love, inner-strength, and the taoist way.
To sum these up, I recommend to anyone who liked the movie to see it again with new eyes. Hopefully, this movie will set the way for a renewed intelligence and beauty in movies in this new century.
My first viewing left me dazzled but slightly confused; a second deeply impressed; a third rhapsodic. I wish I hadn't needed to rediagram it in my head to turn it into the masterpiece it so obviously wants to be.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the fourth book in the Crane-Iron Pentalogy, written by Chinese author Wang Dulu [1909-1977]. The other four books, written between 1938 and 1942, include: (1) Crane Frightens Kunlun/He Jing Kunlun, (2) Precious Sword, Golden Hairpin/Baojian Jinchai, (3) Sword's Force, Pearl's Shine/Jianqi Zhuguang, and (5) Iron Knight, Silver Vase/Tieji Yinping. As of 2007, no official English language translations of his novels exist. However, there is a manhua (comic book) series created by Andy Seto. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was followed by Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny (2016) (2016). "Crouching tiger, hidden dragon" is a Chinese idiom that describes a situation where a great deal of outstanding ability or exceptional talent is concealed in the seemingly ordinary appearance of those who possess such quality or refers directly to those who choose not to reveal their true capabilities. Examples of the idiom's common usage in modern Chinese may include: "This place is [full of] crouching tiger(s) [and] hidden dragon(s)" and "Through the years I never realized that he was [such a] crouching tiger / hidden dragon." The "wu" in "wuxia" refers to "martial arts" or "combat". The "xia" refers to a person whose sense of righteousness is so profound that it empowers them to sacrifice themselves and even break the law to help people. The closest equivalents in English would be the hero, knight, warrior, or vigilante in superhero comics. See here for more information about wuxia and the xia. In terms of wuxia masterpieces, Bao biao (1969) [Have Sword, Will Travel] (1969) and Xia nü (1971) [A Touch of Zen] (1971) are seen as the influential epic grandmasters of the genre. More recent movies similar to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon include Ying xiong (2002) [Hero] (2002), Shi mian mai fu (2004) [House of Flying Daggers] (2004), and Huo yuanjia (2006) [Fearless] (2006). Some wuxia elements can be seen in non-explicitly martial arts films that feature justice seekers who acquire extraordinary fighting skills and often operate outside the state law. Examples may include works from a wide variety of genres such as western, Japanese jidaigeki (period drama), and superhero. Akira Kurosawa's Shichinin no samurai (1954) [Seven Samurai] (1954) and Yôjinbô (1961) (1961) are good examples. The latter has a scene similar to the one where the thugs harass Jen in the restaurant, with the thugs bragging about their abilities and criminal records. It's a scene that was also done as an homage in Star Wars (1977)—the cantina scene. 7cb1d79195
