Ju Dou (Chinese: 菊豆; pinyin: Jú Dòu) is a 1990 Chinese
film directed by Zhang Yimou and Yang Fengliang (though it is almost
universally considered to be a product of Zhang's vision as director) and
starring Gong Li as the title character. It is notable for being shot in vivid
three-strip Technicolor long after the process had been abandoned in the United
States. It was also the first Chinese film to be nominated for an Academy Award
for Best Foreign Language Film, in 1990.
