Review of Raise the Red Lantern (1991) by Lisping H — 25 Aug 2007
I saw this movie when I was in Jr High school on A&E or something, and stayed to watch it because I thought the lead actress was HOT! However, after watching it I wanted to go to China, not just to meet hot chinese women but because it made chinese culture seem so beautiful and elegant.
Even though it took place mainly in that huge house, it still made China seem so amazing. Even to today I still use this a reason to want to visit China. Haha it had that big of in impact on me. I think this is the movie that changed my views on cinema.
For those who have the patience to sit through a production that takes its time to develop characters and situations (essentially, any movie-lover without ADD), this is a must-see and, must-own.
