The literal translation of the title of this movie is: Autumn Harvest Uprising.
This movie should be classified in the category of War, or War/Drama, because this movie is the accurate depiction of how Mao and his comrades lead the peasant uprising in the 1920's after the split between the Chinese communists and Chinese nationalists.
This movie helped to launched the successful career of Mr. Yin Wang who played Mao Zedong in many later productions, mostly for TV. Interestingly, enough, the casting director dismissed Mr. Yin Wang at very first glance during his audition, but he was called back as he was leaving, and consequently casted in the movie.
