I’m telling you, y’all are sleeping on Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon! An Ang Lee masterpiece!

An absolutely perfect film with a whole cast of perfect characters, but I'll start here.

Every single thing about this film is beautiful, but Shu Lien is my favorite. She's a fierce warrior, but she's not fearless. She's incredibly strong, but she's also achingly tender and full of longing.

She flies across the screen in countless, breathtaking fight scenes. But my favorite moments with her are the subtle ones. She communicates a hundred emotions with a single glance, her eyes conveying what she can't say. Michelle Yeoh is a treasure.

The fight scene with the multiple weapons between Jen Yu and Shu Lien lives rent free in my head. I think about it a lot.
