I think Ebert is dead on in his review of this movie. One of Zhang Yimou's best, I think. One of the most visually stunning movies I've seen in a long time. Every bit as good as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.In addition, if you like Rashamon, you will enjoy the parallels here as well.
Victor, since you like Ju Dou, I think you would like this one as well.
