英国BFI制作的纪录片《电影百年》之英国电影

Ten Skies 　　Directed by James Benning. 　　US 2004, 16mm, color, 109 min. 　　Filmed around Val Verde, California, this series of skyscapes gracefully visualizes human civilization's interaction with, and impact on, the landscape. The skies and cloud formations chosen by Benning are affected by pollution from an industrial factory, jet trails, and smoke from an accidental wildfire, all clearly legible upon the firmament. And yet, despite these ominous environmental undercurrents, Benning conceived Ten Skies as an anti-war film, describing his work to be "about the antithesis of war, [about] the kind of beauty we're destroying." This intention is affirmed in the reflective serenity of his images; the varying tones, textures and colors of the atmosphere, and the shifting transformations of billowing clouds that produce astonishing perceptual revelations about scale, ephemerality, and the cinematic frame. 　　http://hcl.harvard.edu/hfa/films/2009marapr/benning.html

唐大中十三年，民间涌现不少反昏君反腐官的组织，其中以打着“杀富济贫推翻朝廷”旗号的飞刀门的势力最大。飞刀门总部设在靠近都城长安的奉天县境内，为保长安安全，朝廷下令奉天县府将飞刀门成员悉数剿灭。 　　奉天县两大捕头刘捕头（刘德华）与金捕头（金城武）收到限期缉拿飞刀门新任帮主归案的命令。因怀疑牡丹坊的舞妓小妹（章子怡）是飞刀门前帮主的女儿，刘捕头设计将她拿下押入天牢，后又与金捕头再度设下圈套令金捕头化身义士将她救出，想骗取她的信任查出飞刀门的巢穴，但他不知的是，除了在公务上与金捕头和小妹打交道外，私情上也会与他们有番纠缠。

鲁道夫·马泰导演，奥斯卡影帝威廉·霍尔登主演，影片巧妙的利用火车车站和地下隧道的因素制造戏剧张力，短小精悍，氛围紧张。侦破绑架案的过程拍得比较紧凑，进入各种隧道追逐的戏码也让人觉得新奇紧张。
