The Last Emperor (1987)
A dramatic history of Pu Yi, the last of the Emperors of China, from his lofty birth and brief reign in the Forbidden City, the object of worship by half a billion people; through his abdication, his decline and dissolute lifestyle; his exploitation by the invading Japanese, and finally to his obscure existence as just another peasant worker in the People's Republic.
🏳️🌈 Bernardo Bertolucci's Oscar-winning historical epic explicitly incorporates a prominent sáfic layer, tracking the Empress Wanrong (Joan Chen) as she enters a decadent, opium-fueled lesbian affair with Eastern Jewel.
