Curse of the Golden Flower, released January 12, 2007, is a tale of ancient China, the Tang Dynasty in the 10th century. It's one of the best foreign films I've seen. It stars Chow Yun-Fat as the Emperor and Jay Chou as Prince Jai. It wasdirected by Yimou Zhang who directed House of Flying Daggers.
It was nominated for an Academy Award for Costume Design but won the Saturn Award for Best Costume. It also won four Hong Kong Film Awards (out of 14 nominations) in 2007: Best Actress for Gong Li; Best Art Direction, Best Costume and Make-up Design and Best Original Song.
