'Red Cliff' boxoffice hits record $44 mil


August 12, 2008 China's costliest film, director John Woo's third century naval war epic "Red Cliff," has set a new boxoffice record for a domestic movie, putting it within reach of China's all-time boxoffice record, held by "Titanic." Earning 302 million yuan ($44.04 million) in the month since its July 10 opening, "Red Cliff" smashed the previous domestic movie boxoffice record held by "Curse of the Golden Flower," a report published late Monday on Sohu.com, said. Ticket sales have now boosted it to become the first Chinese film to earn more than 300 million yuan.
