Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON is a beautiful anomaly in the American cinematic landscape. The Taiwanese martial arts epic crossed over in a big way when it hit stateside in 2000, garnering universal acclaim, 10 Oscar nominations, and an appreciative mainstream audience. More importantly, it helped change the way action-adventure movies were viewed for the next decade, and opened up a world of international cinema to Western moviegoers. We're talking all about Ang Lee's ambitious masterwork, and then talking about the little-remembered 2003 game adaptation, which is decidedly less magical than it's film version.
