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)
