Mount Huangshan, Miriam’s Visit, and “Crouching Tiger”


We watched a movie after Thanksgiving Dinner.
 

“Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon” (released 2000) is set in a scenic area in China that 
Miriam visited on her recent trip, which is why she wanted to see the film.

The film features incredible scenes of swordplay, as well as Chinese landscapes.
Michelle Yeoh is amazing!

Movie directed by Ang Lee.

    Such scenery! We often watch foreign films, or ones in beautiful locations.

    I never saw this movie even though I meant to. I'll have to look out for it again. We watched an episode of Shakespeare and Hathaway (a British comedy/drama private detective show)

    Stunning scenery! I have not seen that movie, although I think we own it. Maybe it's time to watch it.

    Amazing! Mount Huangshan is absolutely incredible, and Miriam's photos are beautiful. That must have been the best viewing experience, seeing the real landscape right after visiting it. Crouching Tiger is a masterpiece. www.melodyjacob.com

    What a beautiful place! It's been a long time since I saw Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon; I did not realize that Michelle Yeoh is in that movie.

    I'm so glad that Miriam was able to visit that beautiful place.
