25th Anniversary! THE LAST EMPEROR, 1987, 164 min. Director Bernardo Bertolucci’s ravishing, Oscar-winning epic of the life of Pu Yi (John Lone), from 3-year old emperor of China to humble Peking gardener. Literally a film about before - and after - the Revolution, LAST EMPEROR is an elegiac swan song to the end of one era and the beginning of another. Winner of nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Director, Adapted Screenplay, Cinematography and Art Direction. Co-starring Peter O’Toole. [35mm]
