Considered his most-important work, master filmmaker Wong Kar-wai’s Ashes of Time Redux is a breathtaking martial arts epic. Swordsman Ou-yang Feng (Leslie Cheung) was once a ruthless bounty hunter for whoever would pay. Now he mostly leaves the killing to others while working as the proprietor of a desert inn, where he spends his days pining after his brother’s wife (Maggie Cheung), who left Ou-yang after he spent too much time away. Ou-yang has a number of contract killers as employees, including his old friend, Huang Yao-shi (Tony Leung Ka Fai), whose annual visits are one of his rare pleasures. With exquisite cinematography from long-time collaborator Christopher Doyle, and Wong Kar-wai’s signature ponderous gaze, Ashes of Time Redux is required big screen viewing!
