Popcorn Culture - Throwback Tuesday: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Ahead of our review of Mulan, we're throwing back to one of the defining wuxia films, that also just happens to be a huge crossover smash hit, winning Academy Awards to boot. We're talking of course, about Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Layering kungfu, romance and myth in one cinematic spectacle, and starring a plethora of stars, it's a rich rewatch for many reasons.
