 Boston Review: Zhang Yimou's Long Road Home
Zhang and his contemporaries were soon dubbed the "Fifth Generation," to single them out from the rest of China's filmmakers, who thereafter were unceremoniously lumped into four generations: the film pioneers, the realist tradition, the revolutionary film workers from Mao's army, and the first film-school-trained directors whose careers were interrupted by the Cultural Revolution.
Zhang Yimou's rise to fame as a filmmaker was fuelled by his discovery of the student actress Gong Li, a woman of extraordinary beauty.

 Rotten Tomatoes Forums - Hero (2002, dir: Zhang Yi-Mou) - request for comments
Zhang Yimou is one of my fave directors and I agree with Ouyang Feng that Hero is very different from his other films.
Both Tarantino and Zhang used a brilliant cinematography that is not familiar with this kind of films in the first place, to such extent that the cinematography becomes the dominant aspect of the film, diluting the homage into an aesthetic masterwork.
Besides being Zhang's second foray into the kung fu genre, the film is also his second "big-budget" film, costing a reported 20 million dollars to make and expected to do at least as well at the box office as the 30-million-dollar Hero.
