陳凱歌新片《無極》昨天傳出即將進軍明年戛納影展和威尼斯電影節的消息。而《無極》的后期制作長達14個月，因此鐵定趕不上明年戛納和威尼斯電影節。而另有知情人稱，《無極》真正的目標是奧斯卡。無論從影片投資、陣容還是題材上看，陳凱歌都將《無極》瞄準了國際市場，《無極》也的確引來眾多國外片商的關注。

"The Promise" Aims for 2006 Oscar

Chen Gaige, Chinese mainland A-list director

Chinese mainland A-list director Chen Gaige's new blockbuster , The Promise, is reported to be aimed at next year's Cannes and Venice Film Festivals, and even the 2006 OSCARs.

The 300 million yuan magic epic saga finished its painstaking six-month shoot in September and has begun its fourteen months long production.

Following in the footsteps of Zhang Yimou's martial arts movie House of Flying Daggers, this much-touted saga is planned to be screened at the Cannes and Venice Film festivals and compete for Oscar Awards.

The film stars 23-year-old Hong Kong actress Cecilia Cheung, actor Nicholas Tse Ting and Korean actor Jang Dong Gun.
