Zhang returns to the hallowed hallways of halberd hoopla with a tale of court intrigue occurring near the end of China's Tang dynasty. CURSE is a curious maze of deception, backstabbing and decay, brilliantly translated by Zhang into what is perhaps China's last hope for keeping alive a film genre that has been steadily falling (or failing) in the West since HERO. Starring: Chow Yun-Fat, Gong Li, Liu Ye, Chen Jin, Jay Chou
Directed by: Zhang Yimou
Produced by: Bill Kong, Zhang Weiping, Zhang Zhenyan.
