MONGOL (R) -Baxter Avenue Theatres
Award-winning
Russian filmmaker Sergei Bodrov (Prisoner of the Mountains)
illuminates the life and legend of Genghis Khan. Based on
leading scholarly accounts, his stunning historical epic
delves into the dramatic and harrowing early years of the
ruler who was born as Temudgin in 1162. As it follows Temudgin
from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his
destiny, the future conqueror is revealed not as the evil
brute of hoary stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and
visionary leader. In a performance of powerful stillness and
subtlety, celebrated young Japanese actor Asano Tadanobu (Zatoichi,
Last Life in the Universe) captures the inner fire that
enabled a hunted boy to become a legendary conqueror.
Masterfully blending action and emotion against some of the
most arresting terrain on earth, Bodrov delivers an exciting
and awe-inspiring tale of survival and triumph, and a love
story for the ages. Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign
Language Film. (Fully subtitled)
