U.S. Premiere Screening Hong Kong, 2005, 150 mins., 35mm. Directed by Tsui Hark. With Donnie Yen, Leon Lai, Charlie Young, Sun Honglei, Lu Yi. As suspenseful and dynamic as it is thoughtful and detailed, Seven Swords is a startlingly realistic adaptation of the acclaimed novel Seven Swordsmen from Mountain Tian by Liang Yu-sheng (The Bride with the White Hair). Stunningly shot on location in China, this new mythological fantasy from wuxia master Tsui Hark is truly an event.
