About this product

Product Information

Jonathan Rhys Meyers stars as real-life hero Charles Hogg in this mix of old-fashioned epic sweep and spiritual courage. Hogg is a naive journalist when he accidentally finds himself in wartorn China's Nanking province, just as the Japanese army is invading during the early days of World War II. He is almost executed but is rescued by a crafty communist guerilla (Chow Yun-Fat) and a lovely, brash nurse (Radha Mitchell). They send Hogg to a burnt-out orphanage to lie low, but as the scruffy orphans begin to charm him, he ends up teaching them English and basketball. Longtime Hong Kong superstar Michelle Yeoh (CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON) is a classy merchant who helps Hogg get the orphanage back on its feet, but then comes trouble when communist insurgents want to conscript the orphans into the local militia. THE CHILDREN OF HUANG SHI is a rare case of an English film being shot in mainland China, and director Roger Spottiswoode (who worked with Yeoh previously on the Bond film TOMORROW NEVER DIES) and cinematographer Zhao Xiaoding get maximum mileage from the dusky beauty of the landscapes, the smoke and charred ruins, and the luminous features of the lead actors. Sweeping romance and war atrocities aside, what sticks here is the beauty of watching Hogg embrace his chance to become an instrument of peace and hope in a dangerous time. The real-life orphans, now elderly, appear at the end to honor the memory of the real Hogg in a touching tribute that lends the proceedings extra emotional impact.

  • true stories always work!!!

    I thought this film was an excellent story, the most important thing was it's true.. George hogg was a young reporter trying to make a name for himself by going to china and reporting on the Japanese invasion of china but the real story was what the Japanese were doing in NANKING now NANGING, He nearly lost his life in nanking but was saved by one of the rebels who got him to safety and that's where the real story begins with the CHILDREN OF HUANG SHI, It's a must see so I won't spoil the rest of the film.....ENJOY...

  • Children of Huang Shi

    Very informative movie about WW2 in China,kind of unbelieveable what the human race is capable of doing to each other,and the endurance of the children that lived through this period. "Well worth watching."
