I didnt expect such heavy themes in the first half of the movie, but it was appreciated. All of that first part prepares for the other half of the movie and the evolution of the characters.

After watching I realize that China can shoot this level of film.

**An excellent film.**

I was really curious to see this movie, because as far as I can remember it was the first Chinese movie I saw. Before I saw it, I read a little about it, and I was quite impressed to see how the film did well in the West, and managed to infuriate Chinese Communist censors. More
