Complex Asia 2010 / Director: Zhang Yimou
A Woman a Gun And a Noodle Shop
Noodle a tasty dish: A pretty close adaptation of the Coen brother’s 1984 Blood Simple but relocated from the flatlands of contempo Texas to the hilly deserts of Shaanxi in ancient China, pic is spiced up with some pratfall humor and visually enhanced by saturated lensing on the dusty red landscapes (…) Plot adheres to the essentials of the Coen’s script, though culturally the movie is utterly Chinese.
