kyburgAmazing 'Grace': Chinese martial arts films
When I think of Chinese martial arts films, my mind goes not to a director like King Hu or a star like Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee or even to Ang Lee's breakthrough "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," which gave the genre a worldwide presence. I think instead of a waiter whose name I never learned in a hotel restaurant in the Chinese city of Kaifeng, where I spent a few days in the early 1980s.
Quentin Tarantino is opening the first night.
Fuck me.
