What a beautiful movie

I am a very visual person, which means the more photographic a movie the more I like it. For example, I could watch the Godfather series forever. Its so well shot. Anyways, today I rented the original Chinese version of The House of Flying Daggers. Its a visual feast. Shot in an impossibly green bamboo forest national park in China as well as an impossibly white birch forest in Ukraine it is one of the most visually amazing films I have seen in a long long time. The plot reminds me a bit of a Greek tragedy, but its easy to live with when set in such sumptuous locations.
