The Founding Of A Republic (DVD) (English Subtitled) (China Version) DVD Region 6

2009 marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China (PRC), and a host of films were specially made to commemorate the occasion. Among those films, The Founding of a Republic is the undisputed centerpiece of the lot, due mainly to its epic scope and the magnitude of talents involved in the production. Produced under the banner of the state-run China Film Group and its director Han Sanping, the ambitious project is helmed by Fifth-Generation director Huang Jianxin (Gimme Kudos) from a script by Wang Xingdong (The One Man Olympics). The historical epic chronicles the Chinese civil war from 1945 to 1949, during which the Chinese Communist Party overthrew the rule of Kuomintang and eventually established the PRC. The film opened in Mainland two weeks before the October 1st National Day, and the strong buzz has powered the film to stunning grosses at the box office. By its fifth weekend, this unstoppable juggernaut has raked in over RMB400 million to become the highest-grossing Chinese film of all time.

Perhaps what makes The Founding of a Republic such an attention grabber and commercial triumph is the huge ensemble cast that has come together under the great patriotic cause this movie represents. Over a hundred big-name Chinese showbiz personalities get starring roles in the event film, including many international superstars that reportedly make cameo appearances for free. Occupying the main roles are Tang Guoqiang (playing Mao Zedong), Zhang Guoli (Chiang Kai Shek), Xu Qing (Soong Ching Ling), Vivian Wu (Soong Mei Ling), Aloys Chen (Chiang Ching Kuo), Liu Jin (Zhou Enlai), Wang Wufu (Zhu De), and Wang Xueqi (Li Tsung Jen). In supporting parts there are Jet Li, Zhang Ziyi, Vicki Zhao, Huang Xiaoming, Liu Ye, Guo Xiaodong, Tong Dawei, Ge You, Hu Jun, Zhang Hanyu, Chen Hao, Ning Jing, Eva Huang, Chen Daoming, and Jiang Wen. Add to the mix popular Hong Kong movie stars like Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Leon Lai, Donnie Yen, Tony Leung Ka Fai, and the stargazing still doesn't end there - even A-list directors Chen Kaige and Feng Xiaogang are onboard taking rare turns in front of the camera!

　　《建國大業》講述1945年8月抗戰勝利，中共毛澤東主席應國民黨蔣介石之邀飛赴重慶與蔣舉行和平談判。國共雙方簽訂了以避免內戰、在政治協商的基礎上組建多黨派聯合政府為主要內容《雙十協定》。

　　但是，國民黨一轉身就發動了對共產黨的內戰，並炮製了召開首屆國民大會的獨角戲，還對民主黨派大肆迫害鎮壓，實際撕毀了《雙十協定》。中共開始了堅決的武裝反擊，而眾多民主黨派紛紛採取了與中共站在一起的立場，堅決反對和抵制蔣介石獨裁行徑。

　　在鬥爭中，身處戰爭前線的毛澤東、周恩來與身在蔣管區和香港等地的宋慶齡、李濟深、張瀾等著名民主人士異地同心，在為人民解放戰爭的不斷勝利而共同歡欣鼓舞的同時，也開始為如何建立一個民主的新中國而未雨綢繆思考謀劃。

　　1948年五月，中國共產黨發表《五一宣言》，發出了召開新的政治協商會議，成立民主聯合政府的號召。這個號召得到各民主黨派的熱烈響應，大批民主人士在共產黨的誠懇邀請和精心安排下，歷經艱險，從蔣管區，從香港、從國外紛紛奔赴解放區……

　　1949年9月21日，群英薈萃的中國人民政治協商會議第一屆全體會議在北京隆重召開。

　　此後九天，中華人民共和國于1949年10月1日成立。
