House of the Flying Daggers on FILM4, Wednesday at 10.55pm

Following on from his Hero, Zhang Yimou's House Of Flying Daggers initially appears to be another, similar exercise in arthouse chop-socky. It even comes from many of the same team (director, writers, producers, designers). It's a very different film from Hero, however. The great distinctions are the focus and sense of scale - Hero had an epic scope and was concerned with the politics of unification. House Of Flying Daggers is more of a melodramatic romance.

It will be on Film4 this Wednesday at 10.55pm.

Even worse.. it's (gasp!) Chinese!

Seriously though I think there's crossover between anime fans and fans of Asian cinema. Pretty much every anime magazine ever covered it as well, so I think it fits in here just fine!
 
Hot damn! Now why'd I go buy the DVd set for it a month ago, when I could of seen this for 'free' at home?
Payed a whole £2.50 for it as well... :p

One was or another, I'll be watching this.
