She’s Got No Name is based on one of the most famous unsolved murder cases in China. Starting out in a bustling alleyway during the Japanese occupation of Shanghai in the 1940’s, the film centres on a wife, Zhan-Zhou, charged with the bloody dismemberment of her husband – a killing that seems impossible for her to have committed alone. The murder thrusts Zhan-Zhou into the spotlight and the court of public opinion, forcing her towards a fate intertwined with that of her own country.

5/10
During the entire first half, it feels like the various narratives – and, therefore, the different characters – are disconnected, making it harder to pay attention and keep up with all of them and the period details. Go to Full Review
Lee Marshall Screen International 05/28/2024
Overseas play will be helped by its widescreen allure, the return of of Zhang Ziyi as a leading lady, and a script that flirts with sentimentality but also has some other more interesting moves. Go to Full Review
