...script, by Lu Wei, who also worked on Zhang's To Live and Chen Kaige's Farewell My Concubine, nicely arranges the vectors of comradeship and competition, power and conscience. Zhou Xiaowen's direction is on the stolid side, but his coaxes his lead actors into giving superb performances, full of the intelligent fury the material demands.
