The Russian-made film Mongol, by Sergei Bodrov, is finally getting a release here in the states on June 8th courtesy of Picturehouse Entertainment. This is supposed to be so good, I wouldn't even care that it has been nominated for the oscar: best foreign language film of the year, I would still want to see it. A sweeping epic, Mongol is the first in a planned trilogy of movies chronicling Genghis Khan's life.

"The movie is an epic story of a young Genghis Khan and how events in his early life lead him to become a legendary conqueror. As a boy he passes through starvation, humiliations and even slavery, but later with the help of his love Borte he overcomes all of his childhood hardships to become one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever known."
