The specific fight is the end one, it starts five minutes into the clip. Sorry, but I couldn't find an isolated clip of it. This fight is great for the same reason that the swordfight from Rob Roy was great; realism. There's no flying around, it's not flashy. There's a real sense of gravity and of the world in this fight. They get muddy and gringy and tired. And the moments of improvisation is great. A guy gets cut on the arm, so he pools the blood in his hand and throws it in the other guy's eyes. That, dropping the knife into the other hand, and several other little things make this fight great, and it especially stood out when it was released when the Crouching Tiger fad was in full swing.

"DAMNIT, Sam The Egg, this isn't a fight scene! That's just guitar playing! What the HELL are you trying to pull?" I know, I know, it's not a 'fight scene' in the strictest sense, but there's a very simple explanation for everything: It's my tournament. Call it a bending of the rules if you want, but I love a good guitar duel, and this is a damn good one. Although considering Jack Butler is played by Steve Vai, best guitar player around, and he does a bunch of Maccio's stuff as well, it damn well better be good. You've gotta see the movie to get some of the stuff, but I'll paraphrase: Eugine is a classically trained guitar player, wants to learn blues, teams up with Old Black Blues Man, OBBM had sold his soul to the devil, this is the guitar duel to get it back. Butler is the Devil's representative. Got it? Good.
