On this episode, we go to take a shallow dive into Chinese wuxiz films and Chinese historical epics. First we talk about the newest film from Zhang Yimou called Shadow. Set against the backdrop of peaceful nations brought to the brink of war by one man and his challenge to another, as well as a beautifully grey color palette, this movie is epic and sumptuous. We also talk about a few other Chinese wuxia films that have crossed over to Western audiences with Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Zhang Yimou's Hero and House of Flying Daggers.
