Nameless has three main adversaries: Sky (Donnie Yen), a master martial artist; Broken Sword (Tony Leung Chiu-wai), a calligrapher who is as adroit with a saber as with a brush; and Flying Snow (Maggie Cheung), Broken Sword's soul mate. Flying Snow has a side skirmish with Moon (Zhang Ziyi), Broken Sword's smitten apprentice. Loyalties are tested, alliances made and sundered. Death is the price for betrayal--of the Emperor or the heart...
...superb fight scenes (choreographed by Tony Ching Siu-tung) have a steely stateliness that suits the film's gravity. Each of these working warriors has the soul of an artist and believes every stroke of the pen or the blade must be justified.

Your story about Las Vegas, "The Strip is Back! [July 26], was not only about the deterioration of a culture but also about America's loss of its heart and soul.

Guevara may be the heart of the film, but Granado - warm, witty and full of life - is its soul. De la Serna tackles the role of skirt-chasing, wise-cracking Granado with mischievous glee. And why shouldn't he? This is, after all, his story, too. In the great tradition of buddy movies, Guevara and Granado spend as much time arguing as they do hugging...
