Directed and starred by Zun Rong, based on a true story, this war was a major event in American history. The story tells of 1836, when 185 brave American soldiers and Texas soldiers united as one and fought bravely against a 7,000-strong Mexican army without flinching, sacrificing their lives for the country and fighting for freedom. The entire film was shot on an island several kilometers away from the actual combat site. "Splendid Mountains and Rivers, Martyrs' Blood" brings a visual shock to everyone, and at the same time, it pays tribute and praise to this glorious historical event and the brave soldiers. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Score and was nominated for seven awards including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing and Best Theme Song.[Collapse]
