Anyone seen Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (I think that is correct; one is crouching, one is hidden), the new Chinese movie about swordsmanship (or -womanship!)? There is a scene where one of the characters extensively examines a historic sword and describes its dimensions in, you guessed it, *&%X# terms. Or at least the subtitles were in such. Very unfortunate. Otherwise, good flick, esp. if you like kodo drumming and oriental swords. HARRY WYETH
