i reccommend the following if you are keen on Han history=
Great Conqueror's Concubine, The
Directed by Stephen Shin.
This movie is so long it was released as two seperate movies in
some markets. It is the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Han are rising
ascendant, and Gong Li is there.
The Great Conqueror's Concubine begins with the decline and fall of
the Qin Dynasty and ends with the establishment of the Han. In
between, rival generals battle for control of the empire, sworn
brothers become enemies, and in the end, only one can be
king.
This movie is epic in every sense of the word. Gigantic battle
scenes, sweeping spectacle, incredible sets, and some of the best
actors from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong together make the film so
epic in fact that it was released in some markets as two seperate
films, The Great Conqueror's Concubine Part 1 and Part 2. Despite
all the trappings that make one expect a slow, plodding, mainland
production, director Stephen Shin is able to inject the action and
pace of a Hong Kong movie into the works, making the story long,
but never dull.
