The 2000 film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, starring Michelle Yeoh, Chow Yun-fat, and Zhang Ziyi, will play in Pittsburgh from February 17 through 22. A synopsis from the distributor:
Named "Best Picture of the Year" by over 100 critics nationwide! Two master warriors (Chow Yun Fat and Michelle Yeoh) are faced with their greatest challenge when the treasured Green Destiny sword is stolen. A young aristocrat (Zhang Ziyi) prepares for an arranged marriage, but soon reveals her superior fighting talents and her deeply romantic past. As each warrior battles for justice, they come face to face with their worst enemy - and the inescapable, enduring power of love. Set against 19th-century China's breathtaking landscape, CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON is the action-packed, box office smash from acclaimed director Ang Lee (Sense and Sensibility, The Ice Storm) featuring stunning martial arts choreography by Yuen Wo Ping (The Matrix).
It plays locally at the AMC theaters at the Waterfront and in Greensburg, and tickets are available online.
