Bawang bie ji =

Farewell my concubine
Miramax Films in association with Maverick Picture Company and Tomson (HK) Films CO Ltd ; producer Hsu Feng ; director Chen Kaige ; screenplay by Lilian Lee Lu Wei
videorecording (DVD) - 2001

This tale spans 50 years--from 1925 to 1977--a story at once that of individuals and of the history of China. Two young orphan boys are in the Peking Opera's perfectionist training academy. Eventually, Dieyi is assigned the role of the concubine in the famous traditional opera of the film's title, while Xiaolou will play the king. They are locked into these roles onstage, while their personal relationship somehow survives the upheavals of World War II, the communist takeover of China and the Cultural Revolution. Dieyi is livid when Xiaolou marries Juxian, who spends her life at the mercy of two men whose work together has defined their individual personalities.
