Sorrowful City

The movie what I like is called "Sorrowful City". It's by a Taiwanese director, Hou, Siao-Sian,who won a world prize for it. I'm very pround of him and very excited because this was the first time a Taiwanese production was on the world stage.
.
The story is very complicated. It describes the "February-Twenty-Eighth incident"about fifty years ago in Taiwan. All Taiwanese remember this terrible history. That was a tragic period in Taiwan when the Repubic of China retreated from China to Taiwan so the government was furious to the Communists. They execute some innocent people who support us.
.
That is the movie summary. It was incredible to produce this kind of cinema in that time but I think people have to face this event all the time. In addition, I like the main actor, Liang, Jhao-Wei, he is the best actor in Asia. I'd recommend it to everybody who like a calssic movie about the history.
