The 2018 Zhang Yimou film Shadow (影), which opened in Pittsburgh on May 24, will continue here through June 6. The distributor provides a summary:
With SHADOW, director Zhang Yimou (HERO, HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS) once again pushes the boundaries of wuxia action to create a film like no other, masterfully painting a canvas of inky blacks and greys punctuated with bursts of color from the blood of the defeated. In a kingdom ruled by a young and unpredictable king, the military commander has a secret weapon: a “shadow”, a look-alike who can fool both his enemies and the King himself. Now he must use this weapon in an intricate plan that will lead his people to victory in a war that the King does not want.Tickets and showtime information is now available online. The theater is located at 1035 S. Braddock Ave. in Regent Square (map).
