	Jiang Wen's 'The Sun Also Rises' is a rare, delightful Chinese fantasy movie - International Herald ...
		Jiang's feat is made even more outstanding by the fact that he turned one of modern China's most painful historical periods into such a mirthful setting.
		Jiang also smartly pokes fun at mob behavior during the period with a hilarious side story about a witch hunt for alleged groping offenders, in which Joan Chen from "The Last Emperor" turns in a superb performance as a sexually charged doctor who has a crush on a university teacher.
		Jiang's images are subtly beautiful — maybe a bit over-the top, but justifiably so given the story's fantasy tone — like a standoff with one character pointing a long rifle at another by a pond amid foggy surroundings, or ashes from burning letters drifting onto actress Zhou's head like snow flakes.

		They don't even care if they have to commit the greatest of crimes, because in their minds, they must "exist." As long as they are seen in the media, they are telling people (including those with voting rights at the 4th plenary session) that they are still a force to be reckoned with.

		Jiang, however, had been the patron and protector of the powerful Shanghai Clique, with its vested interests and opposition to vital economic reforms, such as the need to cool the galloping Chinese economy and curb unnecessary investments.
		China experts explain that in May, most of the economic cooling-off policies initiated by Wen were met with strong opposition from some central and local officials, who deemed these measures a big threat to their vested interests in encouraging investment and headlong growth.
		For those previously under the patronage of Jiang, to politely and wordlessly surrender and submit to Hu, to stop impeding economic restructuring is the wisest course of action.

		The film is only the second from Jiang Wen, who also stars and has since emerged as one of Mainland China's leading actors in films such as Warriors of Heaven and Earth (2004) and Green Tea (2003).
		Jiang Wen and his costars' efforts, Chinese and Japanese, pay off with natural performances that mix a genuine stew of humor and intensity with unpretentious and natural dialogue and delivery.
		Finally, there is Jiang Wen's direction which is fantastic and makes me wonder why he hasn't directed more, although Steven Soderberg has mentioned that the Chinese government may have had something to do with this.

		It's easy to see why it impressed Soderbergh, whose intro consists of basically talking about serving with Jiang on a jury at the Cannes Film Festival and his impressions of the man. Every shot is created with an eye towards artistry.
		Jiang knows how to build tension better than probably ninety percent of the directors out there right now.
		Jiang is just as good an actor as he is a director, as he tries his best to accept his fate--that he's being shat on by the gods, my words not his.

	In the Heat of the Sun : review by Shelly Kraicer
		Jiang Wen (contemporary mainland Chinese cinema's greatest actor, in his first film as director) and writer Wang Shuo (the cynical "bad boy" of new Chinese literature) collaborated on this 1994 feature about coming-of-age in 1970s Beijing.
		Jiang's camera, wandering at will through space, and tracking and backtracking through time, embodies an absolute freedom just out of reach of the film's principals.
		Ostensibly a nostalgia film about the Cultural Revolution's "good old days", this film is much more: a self-consciously post-modern, post-"fifth generation" dismantling of the modern Chinese realist film; an ironic, romance-drenched interrogation of the possibility of eros and passion in a totalitarian era; and a meditation on the traps and opportunities afforded by creative mis-remembering.

		Wen's richly photographed fl-and-white film opens during the Christmas season of 1944 and ends in the summer of 1945 when WW11 ended.
		It's set in a poor north China peasant farming village, near the Great Wall called Rack-Armour Terrace, who have been under Japanese occupation for the last eight years and have uneasily grown accustomed to the Japanese exploiting them for grain and treating them disrespectfully.
		One night Ma Dasan (played by the director--he played Gong Li's lover in Zhang Yimou's Red Sorghum and directed In the Heat of the Sun) is interrupted in the middle of lovemaking with his girlfriend, a young widow, Yu'er (Hongbo Jiang), by a loud rap on the door.
