Mou Tun-fei
Mou Tun-fei () is a Chinese film director.
==Biography==
Better known as T. F. Mou and born in 1941 in Shandong, China. Mou's family left China for Taiwan in 1949. Mou graduated from a state run film school in Taiwan that could not even afford equipment for the students. Mou thus was forced to learn filmmaking by theory alone, mainly by watching films numerous times in theaters and identifying how many cuts the films contained. After graduation, Mou was assistant director on an anti-communist propaganda film called ''Give Back My Country'' and then directed numerous Taiwanese films in a style akin to the Italian neorealist movement. In 1977, Mou joined the Shaw Brothers, his first film there being ''Gun,'' a segment in the fifth film of the Shaw’s exploitation true crime series ''The Criminals''. While at the Shaw Brothers, he would dabble in crime (''Bank Busters''), romance (''Melody of Love''), horror (''Haunted Tales'') and kung-fu (''A Deadly Secret''). However, his most notable work for the Shaw Brothers would be ''Lost Souls'' (1980); telling the story of a group of illegal immigrants taken captive and sexually and physically abused by a gang of human traffickers, ''Lost Souls'' has often been called a brazen, vicious and outrageous exploitation film and a film that brings Pier Paolo Pasolini’s ''Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom'' to mind.
Mou then left the Shaw Brothers to become the first director from Taiwan to work in the mainland. While working on a children’s kung fu film called ''Young Heroes'', Mou began to hear stories about war atrocities committed by the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II. One account, of how the Japanese military had performed every manner of horrific experiment on Chinese POWs and civilians while stationed at Unit 731 in Manchuria, particularly grabbed Mou. Thus, he decided to make a film about it. Originally, he wanted to make a documentary, but he then realized that the Japanese army had destroyed or classified most of the photographs and films so he set about making a staged recreation instead. The film that resulted, a collaboration between Hong Kong and the mainland, would be ''Men Behind the Sun''. After co-directing the hardcore pornographic film ''Trilogy of Lust'' with Julie Lee Wa-Yuet, Mou set about making a sequel to ''Men Behind the Sun'', this time visiting the 1937 Nanjing Massacre (or Rape of Nanking) called ''Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre''. Since then, Mou has attempted to make a third part in his planned ''Black Sun'' trilogy entitled ''No More War''. Apparently due to the infamy of his work, he has not yet been able to obtain financing.
