Mongol

Amy Biancolli

Amy Biancolli, film critic for the Houston Chronicle will be interviewed by co-hosts Bruce Miller and Chris Busch.

Starting Friday in Fairfield is Mongol, Oscar-nominated in 2007 for Best Foreign Language film (subtitled). The Filmosophers would like to inform the many film fans not aware of this "stunning historical epic of the life and legend of Genghis Khan."

"... a stirring and majestic film — a work that dramatizes, romanticizes,
heroizes and humanizes one of history's towering figures." ~ Amy
Biancolli, Houston Chronicle

"In Mongol, Russian director Sergei Bodrov shoots the amazing landscapes
of Inner Mongolia and Kazakhstan the way John Ford turned Monument Valley into a
stage for some of moviedom's most magnificent westerns.

An Eastern western, and a historical epic of epic proportions,
Mongol is a wide-screen wonder that is, not surprisingly, fierce and
violent.

More surprising, though, are its moments of whimsy, magic and romance, even." ~ Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
