**Screenwriters**: Tsui Hark, Koan Hui **Producer**: Tsui Hark Brace yourself for the high-intensity fury of *The Blade*, a martial-arts spectacular with fast fighting moves and even faster editing (no really, these are some extremely frenetic action sequences). Hong Kong maestro Tsui Hark (*Peking Opera Blues*, The *Once Upon a Time in China* series) delivers his own brilliant take on the classic trope of the one-armed swordsman in this thrilling tale of revenge: a blacksmith’s apprentice (Vincent Zhao) sets out to defeat the villain who murdered his father, and when his quest causes him to get an arm chopped off, he adapts by training in a new fighting style full of spinning sword strikes. Hailed by Quentin Tarantino as one of the coolest movies ever made, *The Blade* is a must-see action classic! **Picks from the Video Store** Want more Tsui Hark martial arts madness?
