This is a movie too good for todays audiences.
Just purchased this movie on DVD in a UK supermarket for £5.00 (just under eight dollars).
What a great buy.
This is truly a great movie, a complex sophisticated love story, set in an intriguing exotic location, just before America entered WWII.
A sort of Chinese Casablanca, beautifully written and stylishly acted starring John Cusack, Gong Li, Chow Yun-Fat, Ken Watanabe with Franka Potente, Wolf Kahler, David Morse and Hugh Bonneville in supporting roles.
An intelligent piece of work for grown-ups.
