thanks for the information. Very interesting. I have seen "Rabbit Proof Fence" re the way aboriginal children were stolen from their families and forced to stay in white Homes-- marry white men. That was British Colonialism-- very disgusting too.
Many white children were also sent to Australia from UK-- and other places in order to bring British white stock to Australia. Many had very bad experiences there. Now Britain has apologised-- such as that means anything.
I helped some of them to find their original families here in UK after many years of never knowing their roots.
I shall look out for those other films. directors also. I have the Cd of the music for Hero. Love it.
I must say I would love to see how these films such as HERO are made. There must be alot of technical skills-- Computer--maybe. ALL amazing. I have seen Hidden dragon-- some time ago. I might have another look.
It was the calligraphy that grabbed me and the way the army was so dramatically portrayed.
When I think about Beeijing games and the calligraphy painted on the floor by the movements of the artists. That was fantastic. I think it will take alot of beating for our country to come anywhere CLOSE to that opening to the Games. Get all those people moving totaly in unison-- must have taken many years of practising. Superb and mind blowing.
