ASHES OF TIME 'REDUX' (1994)

WONG KAR-WAI

Plot

In ancient China, on the edge of a vast desert and living the life of a vagabond, swordsman Ouyang Feng controls a network of deadly assassins. Pitiless and cynical, his heart has long been wounded by a love he neglected then lost. But as seasons, friends and enemies come and go, he begins to reflect back upon the origin of his embittered solitude. 'Ashes of Time ‘Redux'' is a timely re-working of Wong Kar Wai's early martial arts epic and in a style of movie making that most of us westerners are unfamiliar with. Impressively choreographed by Christopher Doyle.
