    I think I nominated this for one of our other tournaments and it didn't do very well, but I'm going to throw it out there again anyway. I've always enjoyed this movie.

    Watch video, since the trailer is kinda awful:
    Like all films directed by Zhang Yimou, this has absolutely stunning visuals. An easy SECOND.

    I have made no fewer than 57 nominations so far in this process and spectacularly, they have ALL been seconded.

    As such, I will abstain from nominating any further movies, in order to allow other members to take the remaining slots.

    I will however, continue to second movies that are appropriate.
