The Last Emperor - TV Spot (HD) (1987)

It's an epic adventure. Full of slaves and concubines, empresses, and warlords. The true story of Pu Yi, who, at the age of 3, toddled to the Imperial Dragon Throne to become "Lord of 10,000 Years", China's last emperor. From then on, his was a life marked by the absurdity of fate: from emperor to playboy to prisoner to, finally, an unskilled gardener in the streets of Beijing. Have you ever seen a royal wedding night? Watched an empress waste away? It's all here, in lush, seductive, detail. As only acclaimed director Bernardo Bertolucci could capture it. Exile. Decadence. Eroticism. Greed. And 9 Academy Awards,® including Best Picture 1987. A film like this comes along only once in 10,000 years.
