About this product
Product Information
In the third century B.C., Ying Zheng (Li Xuejian), the powerful king of Qin province, struggles to unify China and become the country's first emperor. In an effort to make himself seem untouchable, he sends his lover, Lady Zhao (Gong Li), to her homeland, Han, to recruit a professional killer who will intentionally botch an assassination attempt on him. Once in Han, Zhao meets Jing Ke (Fengyi Zhang), an infamous assassin who has given up the sword. Zhao's plans change after Ying begins ruling with an increasingly brutal hand--and she starts to fall in love with Jing. Shakespearean in its riveting presentation of tragic power plays on the battlefield and behind the closed doors of royal chambers and featuring wondrous costume and set designs that breathe life into a magnificent chapter of China's rich history, Chen Kaige's film--at the time of its release the most expensive ever produced in his home country--is a sweeping, beautifully shot, visionary epic.Product Identifiers

My Review
The Emperor and the Assassin (1998) sounds like a good movie. I only watched some of the film so far, I can’t finish it because it’s 2hr 41min long but I will one day. I keep falling asleep or take frequent breaks from it due to its length. Since no one did a DVD or VHS opening and closing to this, I think it was a good idea to get it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
