Nanking! Nanking!
Has anyone seen this movie? It's a Chinese film about the rape of Nanking.
I watched it quite recently and I have to say that it's a very powerful film and definately worth watching. I'm going to be honest this film had just as much impact on me s Schindler's List did.
The ending is a little schmaltzy but definately a good watch. In particular I feel that there are to many 'forgotten' atrocities (Nanking in particular) that took place across Asia and people of today should be reminded of what went on.
Practically everyone knows about the Holocaust but probably less than half of those people know about the millions of Chinese, Koreans and South East Asians that were massacred during the war and hopefully there will be more films that deal with this.
