China
- A Century of Revolution
The intention of the documentary is to serve as an overview on
the 20th century history of China. It begins with the fall of
an Empire and rise of Sun Yat Sen in 1911, and moves onto Chiang
Kai Shek and Chairman Mao who are portrayed as leaders who participated
in some of the most significant events that define the Cultural
Revolution. The entire six hour documentary spans approximately
70 years, from 1911 (Sun Yat Sen) through to the rule and capitalistic
tendencies of Deng Xiao Peng. It is no intended as an in-depth
political study of the times! Subsequently, the documentary does
not getted bogged-down in too much detail, but simultaneously
manages to adequately portray the events that defined 20th century
China.
Definitive,
insightful and unforgettable, China: A Century of Revolution is
an astonishingly candid view of a once-secret nation. This powerful
program takes a remarkable first-hand look at China's tumultuous
history, examining its social, political and cultural upheaval
through eyewitness accounts, rare archival film footage and insightful
commentary.
Part One:
China in Revolution
China In Revolution begins in 1911 with the fall of the last emperor
and continues through 1949, highlighting four decades of civil
war, foreign invasion and the ascension of rival leaders Mao Zedong
and Chiang Kai-shek. Rarely seen photos and film footage - among
the earliest ever recorded in China - reveal fascinating details
of a long-censored history. Hear the facts and meet the people
who experienced modern China's most violent era.

Raise
the Red Lantern
Zhang Yimou (Ju Dou) directed this fascinating, visually formal 1991
film about an educated woman (Gong Li) who is sent off to become the
newest wife of a feudal nobleman in 1920s China. Nearly isolated in
his spooky, palatial home, she develops relationships with several
of the other wives and slowly becomes aware of a hideous legacy of
punishment toward more willful women. The film has a brittle and dry
quality that is deliberate, but also suggestive of Zhang working through
various explorations of his own style (which he resolved in his next
film, The Story of Qiu Ju). Gong Li, one of the world's great actresses,
is superb. --Tom Keogh More

China
- A Century of Revolution: The Mao Years (1949-1976)
Definitive,
insightful and unforgettable, China: A Century of Revolution is
an astonishingly candid view of a once-secret nation. This powerful
program takes a remarkable first-hand look at China's tumultuous
history, examining its social, political and cultural upheaval through
eyewitness accounts, rare archival film footage and insightful commentary.
Part Two: The
Mao Years: 1949-1976
From the beginning
of his rule in 1949 to his death in 1976, Moa Zedong and his colleagues
attempted to forge a "new China" from a country mired
in poverty and devastated by decades of war. Yet the Mao years would
bring the new People's Republic of China little stability. Rare
interviews with Communist Party members and ordinary citizens involved
with history's largest political experiment, reveal the turbulence,
famine, violent campaigns and purges which destroyed the lives of
more than one million people.

China
- A Century of Revolution: Born Under the Red Flag
Definitive, insightful and unforgettable, China: A Century of Revolution
is an astonishingly candid view of a once-secret nation. This powerful
program takes a remarkable first-hand look at China's tumultuous
history, examining its social, political and cultural upheaval through
eyewitness accounts, rare archival film footage and insightful commentary.
Part Three: Born Under The Flag
Born Under The Red Flag begins with Mao's death in 1976, continues
with the new leadership of Deng Xiaoping, and concludes with the
struggle of China's paradoxical goals of economic prosperity and
absolute Communist Party control. In the short span of 15 years,
China transformed itself into a never-before-seen hybrid of communism
and capitalism. And although it has become the third largest economy
in the world, the price has been high. Rare interviews and film
footage highlight the Democracy Wall Movement, the establishment
of Special Economic Zones and the dramatic student protests in Tiananmen
Square.

The
Last Emperor
Everything
that was good about the 163-minute theatrical release of Bernardo
Bertolucci's The Last Emperor in 1987 is even better in this new
218-minute director's cut. By contrast, much that was peculiarly
distant and lifeless the first time around isn't really better or
worse in this edition. Conclusion: the net gains are considerable
if you invest time to appreciate Bertolucci's full feeling for the
odd story of Pu Yi, China's final monarch. You remember the saga:
taken from his mother at the age of three, Pu Yi is brought into
the enclosed walls of the Forbidden City to replace the real emperor.
There he becomes a pampered prisoner and hollow symbol of an older
monarchy that has since given way to a ruthless, 20th century republic.
With his pining loyalists beheaded or kept at bay by armed soldiers
outside the City's walls, Pu Yi is tutored by an English gentleman
(Peter O'Toole) and wed to a kindred spirit (Joan Chen). Eventually
cast from his gated paradise, Pu Yi (wonderfully portrayed in adulthood
by John Lone) becomes, by turns, a playboy, a dupe to the Japanese,
and a victim of China's cultural reforms and re-education programs.
This longer cut largely top-loads the film with greater reason to
feel compassion for the emperor, with his often wordless sense-adventure
in the mysteries that could only be known to one little boy plunged
into indecipherable alien decorum, robbed of self-determination
and common sense by his infinite privilege. Added scenes (including
some in the political rehabilitation camp where Pu Yi is held for
a decade) fill out not so much added facts as density of experience.
This improved The Last Emperor is richer in soul and a pronounced
sense of Bertolucci actually directing this film in the most personal
and profound sense. --Tom Keogh
