Some Good Chinese Movies
Crazy Stone (2006)
Farewell My Concubine (1993)
In the Heat of the Sun (1995)
Platform (2000)
Mahjong (1996)
Shaolin Temple (1982)
Maybe to add some cartoon movies:
Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother (1960);
The Monkey King (1964).
The following two are just for fun. In 2005 Chen Kaige shot Wuji, which cost a huge amount of money but turned out to be a really crappy one. A netizen used some of his movie clips to make a humorous story named A Story of Murder Originated from A Piece of Bread, and then posted it on internet. The latter, aimed at making fun of Wuji, got millions of clicking from China and abroad. Chen was mad at the netizen and even threatened him with a litigation.
Wuji (2005); and a response video
A Story of Murder Originated from A Piece of Bread (2005) (19 minutes)
These films demonstrates the power of Chinese propaganda:
The Great Decisive War I, II, and III (1991).
You can find all these movies by simply copying and googling them. Enjoy, my friends.

Wow, just bump into your blog. It’s just like we are a world apart. I am in a university in Beijing and you are in a university that by no means I think one day I will make it.
btw, I like this one “Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother (1960)”, a cartoon movie in my childhood. There are also the Black Cat Detective and the Calabash Brothers. Hehe, do you remember them?
