john woo’s red cliff, the most expensive asian film to date, is about to be released in the usa, albeit an edited down version. the original release was 2-parts, released in asia last year (part 1) and this year (part 2).
for those who don’t know, the film is based on the three kingdoms period of ancient china, a war-infested era that has spawned numerous legends and of course video games, cartoons, comics, etc. now, we get to see it an epic film version…
