StoneKeeper's Super Awesome Movie Guessing Game: I recommend THIS Movie #1058 [Shang Gan Ling (1956), guessed by Kowalski]


I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.

Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids.

Kowalski wins his first victory and joins the scoreboard with Shang Gan Ling (1956), an excellent though sadly little-known (outside of China, at least) movie about a battle in the Korean War from the Chinese perspective. It's a very good and well-made movie which can be found with English subtitles if you look around enough, which I highly recommend.
