Serving up Mr. Darcy : AUSTENLAND
Then we get to meet the men. All hired actors, paid to be players in these women's fantasy of courtship and hot elegance.

By Rashuan “DJReezey” Williams The world knows Bruce Lee, but few know his trainer, Grandmaster Ip Man (Tony Leung). Ip Man faced many adversities, and even went through a long period of suffering; this film, The Grandmaster, not only allows you to know the legend, but gives you a true martial arts experience beyond what you are used to.
