Shuang Qi Zhen dao ke (1991)
'Lo Mein' Western
The relationships between international cinema are rarely as evident as in the Western genre. The Western is one of the few truly original flavors of film, with its dusty landscapes and drawn out intensity.
The Swordsman in Double Flag Town is a film that demonstrates this so well that it - for some reason - is not in favor. Perhaps it is too Chinese for most.
I'm not sure if the term I've used, 'Lo Mein Western,' is even used at all. Its just the only way I can describe this film is to compare it to Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Westerns.
It's unfortunate that it is too Chinese for most people to watch, because it heralds the same human spirit of Kurosawa and Leone. The actors are point on. It's an incredible film, and I fear, something will never again be seen quite like it.
Srpski film (2010)
Excellence in Sodomy
I've been visiting IMDb for years, and just now joined, only to write a review on this movie. The direction and acting are pure excellence. The content needs a new word to be described by that means, "macabre fellatio". It's well known that what happens in this movie really does happen, but seeing it played so well is difficult to bear.
I read in another review that the director made this movie as a political statement. He, and the excellent actors in the movie, have signed a death warrant on their careers. That means its good.
I wont be watching this film ever again, but I'll be sure to keep it. Do not watch this movie if you honestly believe in an inherent good nature of all humankind.
