If the film is uneven, it nonetheless fills an important void in the appreciation of Chinese cinema and the silent movie era. Go to Full Review

05/10/2017 Any Silent Film that has survived from China is a rare treat & although this isn't the most amazing film it does have something to offer. The story of young Chinese man who while studying at the royal temple is thrown into the middle of war between two Chinese tribes, but his goal is to have the Princess' Hand. The film is interesting for the large amount of close up's & focus on actors facial expressions. A fast paced film that packs a lot in 46 minutes. See more Read all reviews
