The most popular film of the acclaimed Chinese New Wave, Red Sorghum is one of the most beautiful films of recent years.
Beginning as a lusty romantic comedy about a nervous young bride's arrival and ensuing seduction at a remote winery, and ending as a heroic and harrowing drama of partisan resistance during the Japanese occupation, the film builds to a spell-binding, explosive climax.
Red Sorghum is a gorgeous fable that will sweep you along with its mixture of violent action, epic lyricism and tongue-in-cheek swagger reminiscent of Leone and Kurosawa.
