THE GRANDMASTER aka Yi dai zong shi d. Wong Kar Wai, 2013 at BFI Southbank (26 JUL 20:50).

• “Wong reunites with long-term collaborator Leung in this sweeping historical epic about legendary martial arts master Ip Man, who counted Bruce Lee as one of his students. There’s a hint of forbidden love between the married guru and Gong Er (Zhang), the daughter of another grandmaster, but it’s the jaw-dropping fight sequences, staged with lavish elegance, that take centre stage.”
