Review of Raise the Red Lantern (1991) by Retta V — 31 Dec 2012
Does the accurate historical date matters? Seventy years later, Yimou's masterpiece of polygamy and competition was banned seemingly with the purpose of overshadowing the chauvinist image of a monstrous regime. Spectacularly shot, the movie gives a clear message, strong to accept yet compatible with the heart, as simple as it may be.
97/100.
