Thanks, tzarine. I can't remember the names of my favourites but I'll find time one of these days to dig around and find them.

tho visually stunning w strong performances hero sadly, is communist chinese propaganda directed by once dissident turned state star zhang yimou annie, if you like the visuals of her, may i suggest ashes of time by wong kar wai, a very different kind of martial arts film www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yLbZgqVDdA

Oh, yes! Tai Chi master is one of the first ones I ever saw, and maybe the first thing I saw Michelle Yeoh in, too.

Oh, yes! Tai Chi master is one of the first ones I ever saw, and maybe the first thing I saw Michelle Yeoh in, too. have you seen her in police story? where she rides a motorcycle onto a train & hangs on to a car lots of her early work captures her better than some of the recent roles tho i loved her in crouching tiger but didn't really like the flick
