Wissenswertes
It was Steven Spielberg who recommended Christian Bale for the lead role.

Zitate
John Miller: The way you are now, is what I like the best. I see you. I see everything that you've been through. And I want all of that, Mo. I want all of it. I love it. I love it all.

Alternative Versionen
Unlike most versions of movies released in China but produced by other countries, which often cut scenes (usually for violence), this film was shown with additional scenes in Hong Kong and Taiwan. These chiefly pertained to the Chinese and Japanese troop battle early in the film. This Chinese-released version contains 3 minutes 46 seconds of additional footage.

A glimpse of WWII in China through one fallen city, Nanking

Please watch this movie to get a glimpse of what it was like during World War II in China. My grandparents were in a different part of China that also got occupied where similar tragedies occurred. Though much much worse. Babies would be thrown in the air and caught on the bayonets as a game. There were killing games. My grandma can never tell her story without crying. The Japanese government deny this ever happened, they never apologized, and payed for their war crimes. They do not even have it written in their history books. All my grandparents want is for their story to be recognized as well as a formal apology. Thanks for reading.
