Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was a Chinese martial arts movie released in 2000, directed by Ang Lee, and starred Jay Chou, Zhang Ziyi and Zhou Yong. The movie was about the love story between three martial arts masters.
When I watched Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I felt the exquisite martial arts skills and gorgeous visual effects presented in the movie. The scenes and movements in the movie were beautifully designed to show the unique charm of Chinese martial arts. At the same time, the film also integrated Western elements, combining traditional martial arts stories with romantic elements to present a unique visual effect and emotional expression.
In the movie's storyline, the male lead played by Jay Chou, Zhou Yong, was a talented martial arts master, but he embarked on the road of revenge because of his family's enemies. Zhang Ziyi played the female lead, Yu Jiaolong, who was a smart and quick-witted Jianghu woman. The love story between her and Zhou Yong was full of twists and turns. The emotional entanglement between Zhou Yong and Yu Jiaolong, as well as their martial arts duel, were all very exciting parts.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was an excellent film that showcased the charm of Chinese martial arts and culture, while also letting the audience feel romantic emotions. I think this movie is a classic in the history of Chinese movies.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon's original work was the Chinese book, Book and Sword, Gratitude and Revenge. This novel was first published in 1966 and was one of Mr. Jin Yong's representative works. It tells the story of the Shaolin Monastery monks and the Jianghu people at the end of the Ming Dynasty. The novel described the grudges of Jianghu, the way of chivalry, and the good and evil of human nature. At the same time, it revealed the dark side of society. The plot of the novel was full of ups and downs, and the characters were full. It was regarded as a classic in the history of martial arts novels.
The reason why the novel Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was set in the late Qing Dynasty was that it could better show the history and social reality of that time. The late Qing Dynasty was a turbulent period. The country was faced with internal and external troubles. The social class and interpersonal relationships were also very complicated. Such a background could provide more story elements and conflicts for the novel, and at the same time, it could better reflect some important events and characters in modern Chinese history.
In the late Qing Dynasty, China's economic and cultural development had a certain foundation. At the same time, many important figures and events appeared, such as the 1898 reform, the 1911 revolution, the May 4th movement, etc. These historical events and characters could provide a rich background and plot for the novel, making it more lively and interesting.
The late Qing Dynasty was also a period of cultural multiculturalism and cultural exchange. Such an era background could provide more artistic elements and imagination for the novel. Therefore, setting the novel in the late Qing Dynasty was a very important choice.
The filming location of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was the Heavenly Dragon Temple on Mount Serpentine. This temple was built in 1339 and was the headquarters of the Linjizong Tianlong Temple Sect. Tenryuji Temple was built with the scenery of Mount Arashi and Mount Tortoise. It had a unique architectural style and was one of the five major temples in Japan. There were many buildings in the temple, including the Dharma Hall, the Great Abbot Hall, the Zen Hall, Youyun Nunnery, and the Dragon Gate Pavilion. Many of the highlights in the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were filmed in the Heavenly Dragon Temple on Mount Serpentine.
