Mongol + Duplicity

Recently i watched 2 good shows. And i'm happy to part with my cash and time to watch these 2 movies.

First: Mongol
Rise of Genghis Khan

Second: Duplicity

I'm going to spend more time on Mongol, since i just caught it yesterday, still fresh from my memory.

I'm not sure how much of the movie was taken from real life, but it's a great way to explore into the mindset of Genghis Khan, or Tembujin back in the 1192, the 12th century.

That man has a great threshold, for pain, forbearance, calm, integrity, perseverance and simple rules which eventually he used to conquer half the world.

In those days, those technology rather, tools and he.. one mere man, to conquer half the world....

Just imagine.

I watched a documentary on him once. classic example of how the environment and circumstances shaped his character.
