Winner of four Academy Awards, including "Best Foreign Language Film," Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a timeless story set in feudal China, in a world where miracles are credible and spirits and gods walk among man. Pain, revenge, and duty are the stuff that binds us in this world and are at the root of the main plot line of the movie, but in the afterlife love and faith linger on. Directed by Ang Lee, with impeccable production and costume design by Tim Yip and sweeping cinematography by Peter Pau, this moviebook offers an endearing portrait of the awe-inspiring feature film, including the complete screenplay, and forward and notes by Ang Lee and Executive Producer/Screenwriter James Schamus.
