I’m pretty late to the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon party, to put it mildly, but I’m glad I chose to backfill with this one; it’s fairly uncharted territory for me, given that my main exposure to Ang Lee is his Sense and Sensibility, and that my exposure to wuxia is minimal - in fact, reading Kylie Chan’s Dark Heavens series is my only real exposure to anything close to the genre.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one of those movies that’s been on my “meaning to see” list for ages, but what tipped me into finally picking it up was my ongoing quest to make sure my daughters have a good range of films to enjoy.
