If you loved Come Drink with Me, try A Touch of Zen
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by King Hu, and they sit in Action / Adventure territory. If that's the register that drew you to Come Drink with Me, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Touch of Zen is
You live reclusively, a painter in a haunted village. But imperial soldiers arrive, and your quietude vanishes. A noblewoman needs your help evading capture. King Hu's wuxia film elevates the genre with its spiritual and visual grandeur. It lingers in the mind long after the credits roll.
