WARRIORS OF HEAVEN & EARTH

 

 
The very familiar scene, for those who once got glued on Discovery Channel; long thin lines of camels and waterless dunes. That is the Silk Road to elementary school kids.   On the hot cliff, even in such a temperature Lai Xi wears all-black. He's trekking Captain Li in the area. He got wind that the fugitive is hired to guard the monkish caravan.
     
 
I'm so sorry that the pix here are bound to be squeezed to minimum watchability due to the maddeningly limited space. But you can get a video of this everywhere; onscreen, the place of battle is so wowy.   "Just wait here until I get back," says Lai Xi. But the girl has her own thoughts; luckily she's no crybaby and doesn't do what she thinks she must clumsily. She sees the caravan down there under attack.
     
 
The caravan moves on to find the Turks blocking their way.   Captain Li's little band will do anything under his command; greatly uneven battles are not rare occasions in their seasoned military lives.
     
 
To Japanese people, the appearance of black crows is an auspicious sign of victory.   But Captain Li is Chinese. To him, it means goodbye planet earth.
     
 
The girl rides down to guide the caravan.   Lord An thinks this is an easy catch; he wants badly what the only one surviving monk has. You can't even guess what it is now. Watch the movie.
