"The Last Emperor" is a magnificent, colorful and spectacular film, and it is also a classic work by European director Beldo Luzzi. The film’s narrative technique is similar to that of " Once Upon a Time in America ", using flashback techniques to tell the 60-year ups and downs of Puyi's life in 2 hours and 40 minutes.
The music of the film can be described as unique and ingenious. The combination of the violin and the guzheng and other instruments makes the music pouring out. People indulge in it.  
"The Last Emperor" restores the individual to history, showing the complex forms of human nature under the crush of history. There are distortions and struggles. The story may not completely conform to the historical facts, but in a sense it may be more real. The epic value of the film far surpasses ordinary biographical films. The squeeze and erosion of history on the individual is almost a psychological epitome of an era. It is not so much about Puyi, it is better to say that it is about Puyi's era and The people shrouded in that era. This is Pu Yi with the richest historical tension.  
This multi-national cooperative film with Chinese historical figures as the theme reflects the achievements of film art in screenwriting, directing, photography, editing, music, and art. With a unique perspective and structural arrangement, the film smoothly shows this legendary and historical event in modern Chinese history. The success of the film should be attributed to the Italian director Bertoluzi to a large extent. Under his guidance, the Chinese composer Su Cong completed the music first, and the actors performed with the music during the filming.
This shooting technique makes the music and pictures of the entire film become natural and produces good results. This is an important factor for the film to win the Oscar for best composition and best sound effects. The role of Puyi has a very wide range of age and psychological changes, and Wan Rong also went from a generation of empress to the final mental disorder. The performance of these two roles is very difficult. However, John Lone and Joan Chen are based on their attitude to the role. Deep understanding and superb acting skills have completed the shaping of the characters   .

    God made. Three hours is not too long at all, and no shot is wasted. Some people think this movie is too magical. But in that era, how could this group of people be reflected without the lens of magical realism! Zunlong is too beautiful, and there is arrogance in his eyes when he is desperate. It's a pity that the times make people. Finally, the metaphor of the cricket, the wife and the wife are appropriate and tearful.

    It is said that Bertolucci once said that all his films are actually about a theme, that is, "the individual is a hostage of history", especially this film. Puyi is not so much an emperor as a prisoner in the Forbidden City. Therefore, the image of the door appears repeatedly in the film. Foreigners filming Chinese history have a kind of warmth that is rarely seen in Chinese movies. At the same time, there are strange things about China from the eyes of foreigners.

The Last Emperor quotes

  • Emperor Pu Yi: After a few years, the tiny republic had become as corrupt as the old Empire. It fell quickly into the hands of ambitious generals and corrupt bureaucrats.

  • Pu Yi, at 15: I'm not a gentleman. I'm not allowed to say what I mean. They are always telling me what to say.
