Red Cliff

i watched Red Cliff, the film Jon Woo directed.
Its fantastic, exciting movie.
it was much better than that I imagined at childhood when i had read its nobel.
And I couldnt stop thinking why they could make such major movie in China, not in Japan.
Takeshi Kaneshiro, one of the main actors of this film, had a good performance with his personality of comedian and handsome.
Shishido Nakamura done great job also.
There are many talented people in Japan.
And there is a big market in Japan (you can find it the reason why so many Japanese actors staring in Big titles)
So I asked why?
I think, the reason is that there are few Japanese Directors and producers in Holliwood.
John Woo, Peter Jackson, the director of Road of the Ring, directed Holliwood major films and then went back there country, making some entartainment films there.
there are many talented directors in Japan, but they shoot the films only in Japan.
Especially animation directors have this tendency.
We should go abroad and challenge mixed cultural talented group.
i want to watch this movie.
