About this product

Product Information

Although it is 160 minutes long and shot with breathtaking scope and sumptuousness, Bernardo Bertolucci's film is a story about claustrophobia. Pu Yi, the Manchurian emperor of China who ascended the throne in 1908 at the age of three, is a prisoner in the palace he rules over. Outside, real power changes hands with each coup d'etat. Pu Yi grows to manhood, is tutored by a Westerner (Peter O'Toole), and marries a gorgeous princess (Joan Chen). However, the adult Pu Yi (John Lone) is destined for a communist reeducation camp when the war is over. From start to finish, Pu Yi is a passive antihero who can never come to grips with the idea that the absolute power conferred on him as a child was only a mirage. The mistakes Pu Yi made trying to realize that power, especially collaborating with the Japanese during the war, provide Bertolucci with the chance to explore his familiar theme of collaboration and its moral consequences (as he did in THE CONFORMIST and 1900). In the end, Pu Yi seems to have reached a kind of peace, and the terrible waste of a special man's life disappears into a drab, grey-clad Beijing.

    The Last Emperor

    I LOVE THIS MOVIE. It portrays China's last emperor from the time he was taken to the Forbidden City as a child to the time of his release from prison - with a WHOLE LOT MORE in between. It has great historical value, elaborate settings and excellent acting.

    Forbidden City

    I watched this movie at a young age and it left me wanting to know more about China, its last Emperor, and the palace he was imprisoned in. Now that I'm older I enjoy it even more. Watch the extras they will explain what was happening outside the forbidden city while the movie depicts his experiences. Great peice of history.

    A cinematic tour de force.

    If you are a fan of Bernardo Bertolucci’s films this is a cinematic must to own. A beautiful film and Storraro’s camera work will take your breath away.
