Astonishing Sword Battle from 'Hero' - Water Dance

One of the most beautiful pieces of cinema you are likely to see. From the 2002 film 'Hero (英雄)' directed By Zhang Yimou. (In the downunder channel because of the choreography by Christopher Doyle.)

Saw it in the cinema and bought the DVD - this makes me want to get it on bluray :>

I didn't know it was in the theaters in U.S. Yeah, BR would be nice. Maybe I will wait for that instead, but I don't have a HDTV and BR player yet.

Yeah, you have to watch out - they dumbed down the subtitles on the US copies quite a lot of the flowery speech is lost. Although it doesn't detract from the film that much.

If you're looking for a half decent bluray player, I'm pretty sure you could pick up second hand ps3 pretty cheap - they can also double up as a media center for you :]

Interesting. I wonder if the VHS tape version I saw dumbed down. I only recall visually nice movie, but OK story. As for BR player, I need a HDTV first but that won't happen until my 1996's 20" CRT TV shows problems or die. [grin]
