RAISE THE RED LANTERN SCENE
大红灯笼高高挂
The third feature by Zhang Yimou stars the beautiful Gong Li as a 20-year-old college student who leaves school to become the fourth wife of a wealthy, powerful aristocrat. Her presence occasions a series of bitter jealousies and disputes with the three other wives. A fascinating work about sex, oppression and patriarchy. Named Best Foreign Language Film by the New York Film Critics Circle and the National Society of Film Critics.
