House of Flying Daggers

A wuxia film - that is a historical Chinese martial art film this film was put forward for an Oscar for best cinematography though it didn't win. A very pretty film with interesting colour use.

The story starts as police officers look for Robin Hood style rebels (the titular House of Flying Daggers) and try to locate their leader through his suspected daughter a blind dancer. Things become complicated when one of the officers fall in love with her. Soon loyalties to respective groups become shaky and twists and turns reveal. Pretty and interesting I give it a 4/5.
