ConfuciusDirected, written and produced by Hu Mei, starring Chow Yun Fat, Zhang Kaili Zhou Xun as artists and actors.

This film focuses on the last years of the influential Chinese philosopher and transcendental, a period spanning from taking political office, at 51 years, until his death at age 73, this time in which take the historic war between the various Chinese states. Here you have the official movie trailer.

The Chinese intellectual, born 551 BC, died a man central to Chinese culture and its ruler, Emperor Lu, who is based in Confuncios, to calm the ongoing state of war and tension between different Chinese governments. This measure will cause distrust in the rulers of other Asian powers, which will cause, the voluntary exile of the thinker.

Without doubt, the film presents attractive ingredients to see, perhaps causing me some apprehension is whether this treatment will be inclined to the care and thoroughness of a documentary, or conversely, will sell their principles to Hollywood and become another commercial version of a historical character.

For those who feel curiosity, for this extraordinary character, and ye know in depth before viewing the film, here are a documentary about his life and work.
