Russell Crowe, after "Gladiator," was a bit of a dead end. The heroine Amanda is one of the four little golden flowers in Hollywood. I am face-blind, and I still can't remember all of her films!
The script for this film comes from Hollywood's script blacklist, an organization that specializes in finding opportunities for those lost in the ocean. Every year, good books are discovered there and put on the screen. What China lacks at present is such a platform. Many screenwriters have written books and have nowhere to invest, and many good books have been buried and unknown.
