A few days ago I already reported that Peter Chan's film “Wu Xia” will be shown at the Cannes Film Festival out of competition.
Now it’s time to present to your attention a festival poster, a small teaser trailer and a brief description of the plot.
Plot:
End of the Qing Dynasty. Liu Jin-hsi (Donnie Yen), the father of two sons, lives a seemingly normal life in a remote village as a papermaker. However, the arrival of a detective (Takeshi Kaneshiro) threatens to tear his family apart...

It turned out that director Peter Chan spent almost $350000 to organize a charter flight and transport the film from Thailand to France. And all for the sake of getting the film into Cannes before May 13th.

Information has emerged that the film was purchased by the Weinstein Company (TWC). It looks like they will change the English title to “Dragon”.
No, there weren’t ropes there, they were just tying some kind of straps...
the video is not bad...we'll wait
The visuals are reminiscent of ''A True Legend''
Damn, wait a few months again!
And the music is so Tarantino-esque. )))
Joint anatomical research by Donnie Yen, Takeshi Kasheniro and their assistant Tang Wei in a large-scale report Wu Xia! Sponsored by Biology Professor Jimmy Wang Yu! )))))))))))))
High-quality computers special effects, by the way. And if we talk about ropes, then wuxia seems to imply “flying in a dream and in reality.”
Is it just me, or did they forget to wipe the cable at 31 seconds when throwing it on the table? :)
will wait...
Not an action movie, but a whole encyclopedia on anatomy! )))))))
The cinematography looks healthy and promising!
but Donnie Yen, apparently, will soar on strings again....
damn it must be a clear movie!
