The Founding of a Republic (Jian guo da ye) The People’s Republic of China turns the big six oh this October 1st and to celebrate they’ve made a little movie titled, The Founding of a Republic. Opening last month (September 17th - at exactly 2pm) in China, the extravaganza was all set to go by the title of The Great Cause of China’s Foundation - which clearly wouldn’t have suited the subtle tone filmmakers were going for.

Actors like these people: Jackie Chan Zhang Ziyi Donnie Yen Tony Leung Chow Yun-Fat Stephen Chow Andy Lau Jet Li Leon Lai It of course also features an appearance by Eva Huang (above right) as the most photogenic cadre you’ll ever see.
