mongol (2007)


aka Mongol: The Rise of Genghis Khan.
"I forgive you, brother."
A dramatisation of the early life and rise to power of Temudjin (Tadanobu Asano), a man who was to unite the Mongol tribes and go on to conquer half the known world, becoming forever known as Genghis Khan.
An epic story played out impressively against the Mongolian plains, though I could do without Bodrov's ficticious additions to the Khan's biography.
