Customer Review:
1939. A communist soldier is sent to a very remote province to collect to collect songs ( A visible homage to Bela Bartok, who gathered more than three hundred songs of the Hungarian Folk) , but additionally he will learn much more about the real life.
The admirable simplicity of this plot... more info

| | 2. |  | Raise the Red Lantern
from Orion Home Video
Customer Review:
A look at male/female relationships in the old times and the options (or lack thereof) opened to women. Yet even in such a dreary setting with limited scenery the cinematography and the costumes were brilliant. The lanterns were truly beautiful. Gong Li played her part well.

from Columbia Tristar Hom
Customer Review:
I saw "The Last Emperor" a few years back and the movie has staid with me in many a positive way. I was truly amazed at the quality of the sets, the costumes and and the color throughout the movie.

| | 4. |  | Not One Less
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
I don't know how this movie got into my Netflix queue, but it took my breath away. Brilliant and deceptively beautiful, and acted by "real people," not professional actors. What a lovely and realistic look at life in China, and what a moving depiction of a loving heart.
Not to be missed.

from Live / Artisan
Customer Review:
I agree 100% with Nix Pix. He said it all. I only wish to reiterate here. Amazing film but world's worst DVD transfer. Shame on ARTISAN for releasing such an inferior product. DO NOT waste your time or money on this version. Even if you find it in a bargain bin for 99 cents, leave it alone. Unless... more info

from MGM (Video & DVD)
Customer Review:
This movie ranks at the top of one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The plot sounded interesting, but the lead actress was blank. She lacked character...it was embarrassing to watch her. Her lines were stupid...actually comical! The lead actor was quite believable; unfortuately,that was not... more info

All the revolutions are like Saturn; they conclude devouring even its most beloved. In this case we have an intimate story of schoolteacher from 1954 to 1967. A woman who loses three husbands and eventually her own freedom.
