Ashes Of Time Redux

Description: In this film set in ancient times in China Leslie Cheung plays an agent Ouyang Feng hiring famous bounty hunters His character is portrayed as a fallen swordsman driven by greed and heartless to both friend and foe He was perpetually being spiteful of love as his own love history was not nearly so beautiful His bounty hunters came and went as was narrated by Ouyang Feng himself as based on the Tung Shu predictions In essence he was a loner with little love but the bounty hunters that worked for Ouyang Feng like Blind Swordsman and another of his best fighters Hong Qigong discovered the intangible secret of true love while Ouyang retained his attitude towards his fighters and the precious lessons that they have taught However the thread that runs through the entire narrative has clearly the spirit of refusal in the sense that one should reject another before he gets to be rejected in the future To illustrate nearly every character in this story has resorted to being selfish and malignant in order to prevent being rejected by others be it in love or in comradeship as their individual hardships have moulded their attitude turning them into heartless and cold individuals in order to survive in the uncompromising desert where the story is set It has many moral implications but is less evident since the main character is Ouyang himself and most of the narration would unquestionably be centred on him
