a touch of zen ( 1969 ) have to be one of the best film ever make . i be one of those people who can never truly name a personnel favorite film . i feel that there isn not a film that you can say be the best ever . i still do but if i have to say five or ten and a touch of zen would have to be in the top five . i haven not felt this way about a movie since i saw the seventh seal . i love this movie . everything from the beautiful photography down to the deepness of the picture . the acting be superb and the writing be top notch and the direction be flawless . the film have everything you could want in a movie while action and drama and and comedy . the soundtrack be haunt and the wire work be amaze . no wonder why so many movie have copy off of this film ( notably crouch tiger and hidden dragon and the matrix trilogy ) . unlike those other film this movie will withstand the test of timep . s. this movie be awesome . a magical experience catch on celluloid . a true treasure .
