    Film shows the horrors of war
  How cruel(残酷的)　could a war be? How much could
 Chinese soldiers be ready to lose for their people?
 The Battle at Lake Changjin will show you.
  The story takes place during the War to Resist US
 Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-1953). It was cold 
there -- the temperature was -40℃． The Chinese 
soldiers only had thin winter clothes and could not
 keep up with food or weapons(武器). The US army, 
on the other side, had much better equipment(装备).
  To protect their homeland, Chinese soldiers fought
 fearlessly. The most touching(感人的) part in the film
 might be the "Ice Sculpture Company" (冰雕连). Many
 soldiers were frozen (冻住) into ice while staring (盯着)
 at the front with weapons in their hands! As the 
Liberation Army Daily reported, more than 4,000 people 
died of cold during the battle.
  "I was greatly touched by the soldiers' bravery(勇敢)
 and their love for the country," said junior high 
school student Li Lin'en. "The film made me think 
about where our happy life came from, and we should
 always be thankful for that."
  A big production
  The film had more than 12,000 actors, extras (群演) and 
workers.
  The team made more than 30 tanks (坦克) as props (道具),
 and each cost more than a million yuan. The film cost 
a total of 1.3 billion (十亿) yuan.
