Ang Lee’s wuxia film became an international success and garnered 10 Academy Award nominations, the most for a non-English language film (now tied with Roma) and won four. Set in 19th-century China, the film follows a warrior (Chow Yun-fat) who gives his sword to his lover (Michelle Yeoh). When it is stolen, an epic story unfolds, filled with love and duels, and captured with stunning cinematography.
