Summary

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is an epic love story and a thrilling action drama set against the breathtaking landscapes of ancient China, filmed entirely on location. The film was based on a five-volume Chinese novel by Wang Du Lu, which has never been translated into English, making this the only book available for audiences eager to learn more about the movie. The project was scripted by Wang Hui Ling (Eat Drink Man Woman), James Schamus (The Ice Storm), and Tsai Kuo Jung. Marking Ang Lee's first Chinese-language feature since 1994, the film is punctuated by choreographed fight scenes and stunts masterminded by action choreographer Yuen Wo Ping, who worked on The Matrix." "The book features the entire screenplay and storyline, illustrated with more than 90 full color photographs, many shot on location during production."--BOOK JACKET
