Goodness gracious, I've watched a movie.
So, to begin with, what does "Attack From Ten Sides" (ει’εδΌ) have to do with "House Of Flying Daggers"?
Anyhow, back to the movie. I was recommended this movie when we we're in Xi'an, which is the site of Chang'an, the capital city of China for a fair bit of Chinese history, including the Tang dynasty (about 600 to 900 AD, considered to be the height of Chinese civilisation). The cultural show we went to there was pretty spectacular - go the long sleeves!
Anyhow, the movie was pretty good - a love story, martial arts, betrayal, with very nice photography - set during the decline of the Tang dynasty. Good stuff. (But maybe not fantastic?)
More movies for me next year.
ooh, I forgot to explicitly mention it, but 'Attack from Ten Sides' is the literal translation of the Chinese (original) name of the film.
