Dance of the Dragon (2008)
This film marries ballroom dancing and martial arts disciplines into a plot involving a love triangle set in modern-day Singapore. Korean male star Jang Hyuk plays Tae, a dancer who goes to Singapore to pursue his passion for ballroom dancing under a renowned teacher Emi (Fann Wong), but faces off against her jealous boyfriend Cheng (Jason Scott Lee). While the film is undeniably art-house in its treatment of the melodrama, it benefited from commercially-savvy marketing decisions such as the inclusion of ballroom dancing and martial arts routines and the casting of internationally-renowned stars with commanding screen presence. It’s obvious from the cinematography, soundtrack, settings and the performance of the actors that much thought went into making a film with heart and soul. This film is not so much entertaining as enlightening. It’s art-house, pulled off with stunning aplomb.
