Via Useless Tree, a trailer for the biopic on Confucius:
And from CCTV’s description of the movie:
A film depicting the life of the ancient Chinese philosopher and educator Confucius has become a highly anticipated epic blockbuster. The movie wrapped up shooting in Beijing on Wednesday, and a ceremony was held to release the first trailer.
Renowned actor Chow Yun-Fat, who plays Confucius, and other leading actors, including Chen Jianbin and Zhou Xun, appeared at the ceremony. Chow said he took the role because Confucius is portrayed in the film as a man with much human interest.

OMG, I love it! This short trailer actually brought tears to me eyes and I can’t wait until 2010 to see it.
One thing that it very comforting to me is that I can trust that the Chinese film industry didn’t take liberties with the historical facts about this great man. I could not trust Hollywood to do the same.
