Great news - Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon was released on DVD in the Far East on 12th January! It is not due for release in the UK or US until Christmas 2001 at the earliest as it is likely to get a Cinema re-release if it does well at the Oscars (as expected). The DVD is Region 3 however but contains the original version in Mandarin with English subtitles or a dubbed English version. There are loads of extras and this film gets top marks in all of the reviews - it has quite possibly the greatest fight scenes ever! http://www.movietyme.com are doing it for the very good price of £19.99 delivered - I have my copy on order and cannot wait for it!
