Review of Raise the Red Lantern (1991) by Lyanne C — 19 Aug 2008
"When a beautiful young woman is selected to serve as concubine to an affluent man, she sadly accepts -- knowing that she has no other alternative to survive financially. Her fate, however, turns from bad to worse when her master's other wives, all older and not as attractive, callously alienate the newcomer due to their sexual jealousy.".
I thought it was very interesting. Watching the traditions and the fights between the wives was, well, captivating. Really, worth a watch.
