Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
»rank: 4574
Chroniques et points de vue: Essential Video:Hong Kong wuxia films, or martial arts fantasies, traditionally squeeze poor acting, slapstick humor, and silly story lines between elaborate fight scenes in which characters can literally fly. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has no shortage of breathtaking battles, but it also has the dramatic soul of a Greek tragedy and the sweep of an epic romance. This is the work of director Ang Lee, who fell in love with movies while watching wuxia films as a youngster and made Crouching Tiger as a tribute to the form. To ...

Double Happiness
»rank: 14571
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Double Happiness is the story of a young Canadian woman (Sandra 0h) who struggles to be an actress, while living with her conservative Chinese immigrant parents (Stephen M.D. Chang and Alannah 0ng). This likeable comedy/drama boasts uniformly fine performances from all concerned (particularly 0h, who received Genie Award for Best Actress) and includes a then largely unknown Callum Keith Rennie. First time writer/director Mina Shum crafts the film with a brisk tempo and scenes that rise above clichés. Nice score by Shadowy Men From a Shadowy Planet. --D.K. Latta
