The Last Emperor (1987)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This film is one HUGE film ... not only in scale, commitment, and scope. But also in length. This film is extremely long ... especially if you watch the over three-and-half hour Director's Cut. However, regardless of which version you decide to screen, you will be transported to the historical, glorious, and heartbreaking world of the final emperor of China in the early part of the 20th century. Bernardo Bertolucci's The Last Emperor is deep in meaning and rich in themes, and is exhilarating to watch as the visuals will take you to a place you have never been before. A world where you can experience through history books. It is a special film that took home the top prize at the Academy Awards almost 4 decades ago.
Looking back, was it deserving of the Best Picture Oscar from all the films released in 1987? Listen and find out what film critic Jack Ferdman thinks, and which film he chooses for his Rewatch Oscar of that year.
