Hello fellow chinese. Have you guys seen Red Cliff(Chek- Bik)?
That is such a great movie!
The evey details of Three kindoms story is so well known in China that makes the attempts of producing a great movie about "Three Kindoms" becoming quite a challenge.
In my view the "Red Cliff" is a good movie, if it is not a story about Three Kindoms.

It aimed for the golden lion you don't succeed at an european film festival without hardcore skin scenes now because this "new radicalism" thing is en vogue. sadistic love and moral issues in the antifascist résistance was discussed ad nauseam in euro cinema but it was never expected to come from the East.
A Romeo and Julia plot with partisans and Quislings is still imponderable where I live, where the first are still venerated and the second still bedeviled. that would be considered outrageous at best and most probably just tasteless. Same thing in China?
Well that would be it. the second chinese movie I have watched so far. The first was a piece of depressive neoneorealism by Tsai Mingliang.
So what are the others to look out for
......sadistic love and moral issues in the antifascist résistance was discussed ad nauseam in euro cinema......
Really? I didn't see any of that story in an Block Bluster, while the "Lust.Caution" was boasted as a Chinese block bluster.
Plus, I knew there were some Paris Women slept with Germen soldiers, which punished by French man after the Germany defeated.
but I never heard about a story that Russian or Jewish girl fell in love with an Germen officer,
so, what particularly the story discussed "ad nauseam", about the sadistic love and moral issues in the antifascist résistance?
And yes, I said a Jewish girl fell in love with an German officer......
I bet that if there was a movie of this topic, it may won a "silver dog" award too, elected by the "social elite", or "art elite", as the interesting of these "elite" is award the odd but not agree the common sense.
