Unlike his better-known contemporaries, Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, who made their names with historical dramas, Wu Ziniu is best known for his early war films. His 1985 film on the Sino-Vietnamese War, ''Dove Tree'', was the first film by a Fifth Generation director to be banned by the Chinese government. Provided by Wikipedia
