Saw this movie a few years ago.
I am an Inner Mongolian and a Mongolian, but I don't want to know the history as well as the people upstairs. Not to mention how the plot is, just looking at the characters and the costumes makes me feel very real. There is also a part of a duel beheading, which is also quite amazing. Probably in the past, the beheading was just like this, and there was no blood!
Back in the early 13th century, the Great Khan Temujin swept across Asia and Africa, unifying Mongolia and Outer Mongolia, including the Tannu-Wuhai area. But he is not Chinese by any means. At that time, the Central Plains people had always been in a dominant position, the ruled party, and they had never recognized the Central Plains people very much. Furthermore, the Great Khan has conquered so many ethnic groups, can it be said that the Russians can also say that Genghis Khan was a Russian?
The Mongolians are very smart, absorb the Chinese culture, and intermarry with the Han people, which promotes ethnic integration. During this period, Mongolia was an independent territory, and it is a bit far-fetched to say that it was a Chinese dynasty. It's just that the Mongolians adopted the method of recording the year in chronology.
Later, Mongolia fell. This is the end of the myth of the Genghis Khan generation. But his descendants have been living in the land of China and have been managed uniformly. At this time, you can call the Mongolians living all over the country Chinese.
To be more precise, Mongolian history and Chinese history should be cross-related, and neither is subordinate to the other. On a large scale, Mongolia's history should be counted as part of world history. Genghis Khan is the god of war that people all over the world look up to!
Since it is not only the history of China, the people of the world make movies in memory of the God of War, do you still care who made them? Do the actors you invite also consider the Sino-Japanese War? Don't bring ethnic hatred, watch the movie with peace of mind, and I still don't understand it very well.
Let's talk about movies.
This movie does not have the heroic values of Hollywood, and the love between the two people also touched me very much. A movie without love will make people feel that there is something missing, so Russian directors have amplified this aspect as a main line. After all, this is artistic processing. Does it have to be photographed as a Mongolian woman worthless? It will only make people very depressed. (I am a girl) A little deviation from the historical facts will also bring a different feeling. After all, they are making films with artistic sense rather than documentaries, so they are not so harsh.
Landscape and color. The tones are deep and have a strong sense of history. The sets and props are very careful, including the various words that appear in the play.
Characters and costumes. The thing I want to praise the most is the hairstyle. Although it doesn’t quite fit the aesthetics of modern people, it is similar to the traditional Mongolian hairstyle in the impression. It doesn’t matter whether he is dressed according to the historical facts or not. At least it looks very domineering. A general in simple attire will have a lot less to see! I think it's good to be more gorgeous and exaggerated! I like this daughter-in-law in the movie the most. She looks very distinctive, and I always feel that it is much more beautiful than the current plastic surgery face.
I watched the original Chinese subtitles, no messy dubbing, and I like listening to Mongolian, which is also a plus.
This sentence makes me sigh: our language is the most beautiful language in the world, and one day people all over the world will speak Mongolian.
A mythical figure has been buried underground for many years. Now Mongolia, which spans Asia and Europe, is gone. I hope people in Outer Mongolia will stop hating the Mongolians in China and Inner Mongolia. Wish China-Mongolia friendship and world peace.
