The Last Emperor (Director's Cut)

Film Description

Winner of 9 Oscars, including best picture. The true story of the Last Emperor of China, ruler of nearly half the world's population at the age of three, overturned by revolution before he was 10, a puppet ruler of Manchuria as a young man, imprisoned by communists in middle age and a gardener in old age. A masterpiece of controlled film making where the epic never overshadows the human story of an individual's struggle to adjust and cope as he moves through his life from power to humility from medieval China to 20th century Asia.
