Let's start something way bigger than I can chew. In this series, we'll go through the entire history of China, and take a look at movies set in each dynasty, talk about their visual aesthetic and story themes!
Early Chinese dynasties aren't the most popular settings for movies. There aren't that many popular stories, nor does it have many pre-existing movie sets, so it is always a big investment whenever a Zhou or Qin dynasty movie is made. Nevertheless, I've found a few representative films to show you. Enjoy!
