Overview

English Summary:
"Hero" is a 2002 Chinese wuxia film directed by Zhang Yimou. Starring Jet Li as the nameless protagonist, the film is based on the story of Jing Ke's assassination attempt on the King of Qin in 227 BC.

In ancient China during the Warring States period, Nameless, a Qin prefect, arrives at the Qin capital city to meet the king of Qin, who had survived an attempt on his life by the assassins Long Sky, Flying Snow, and Broken Sword. As a result, the king has implemented extreme security measures: no visitors are allowed to approach the king within 100 paces. Nameless claims that he has slain the three assassins and displays their weapons before the king, who allows him to approach within ten paces and tell his story.

Nameless recounts first killing Long Sky, before traveling to meet Flying Snow and Broken Sword, who had taken refuge at a calligraphy school in the Zhao state. He tells Sword that he is there to commission a calligraphy scroll with the character for "Sword" (劍), secretly seeking to learn Sword's skill through his calligraphy. Nameless also learns that Snow and Sword, who are lovers, had gradually grown distant. Once the scroll is complete, Nameless reveals his identity and challenges Snow to a duel the next day, to avenge her secret lover Long Sky. Sword, in anger at Snow's betrayal, makes love to his pupil Moon, and is seen by Snow. In revenge, Snow kills Sword, followed by Moon when she attempted to seek revenge for her master. The next day, Nameless kills the emotionally unstable Snow before the Qin army and claims her sword.

Összefoglaló

Hero (2002) egy kínai wuxia film Zhang Yimou rendezésében, Jet Li főszereplésével. A történet Jing Ke sikertelen merényletére épül, melyet a Qin király ellen kísérelt meg i. e. 227-ben.

A Hadakozó államok korában a Qin prefektus Nameless érkezik a királyi udvarba, azt állítva, hogy megölte az ellene szövetkező bérgyilkosokat: Long Skyt, Flying Snow-t és Broken Swordot. Bizonyítékként bemutatja fegyvereiket, ezért a király engedélyezi, hogy közelebb lépjen és mesélje el történetét.

Nameless előbb Long Sky haláláról számol be, majd arról, hogyan találkozott Snow és Sword párosával, akik egy Zhao állambeli kalligráfiai iskolában rejtőztek. Azért rendelt tőlük egy kalligráfiai tekercset a "Kard" (劍) írásjelével, hogy megértse Sword harci technikáját. Kiderül, hogy Snow és Sword szerelme megromlott, és miután Sword megcsalta Snow-t tanítványával, Moonnal, Snow bosszúból megöli mindkettejüket. Másnap Nameless végez a lelki összeomlás szélén álló Snow-val, és megszerzi kardját.
