Synopsis:
Award-winning Russian filmmaker Sergei Bodrov illuminates the life and legend of Genghis Khan in his stunning historical epic, MONGOL. Based on leading scholarly accounts, MONGOL delves into the dramatic and harrowing early years of the ruler who was born as Temudgin in 1162. As it follows Temudgin from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his destiny, the film paints a multidimensional portrait of the future conqueror, revealing him not as the evil brute of hoary stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and visionary leader. MONGOL shows us the making of an extraordinary man, and the foundation on which so much of his greatness rested: his relationship with his wife, Borte, his lifelong love and most trusted advisor.

well,although critics seem to find this reprise of genghis (i haven't seen quinn's) to be steeply artful, i have to doubt the factual fidelity of a story that has been made mythical over the course of 8 centuries...also, i tend to resist the idealization of individuals who pursue a lifestyle of genocide...stalin was said to be warmly humorous, but that did not prevent him from annihilating by starvation between 5 and 8 million ukrainians in 1932...i expect to get some fun out of mongol (take II) but it shall be received as pure fantasy.
