CGiii Comment
Harsh discipline, entrenched tradition, dedicated devotion and a meddling, manipulative woman.
Stories don't come much better than this - an emotional rollercoaster ride.
Done to perfection.

"Farewell, My Concubine" is a movie with two parallel, intertwined stories. It is the story of two performers in the Beijing Opera, stage brothers, and the woman who comes between them. At the same time, it attempts to do no less than squeeze the entire political history of China in the twentieth century into a three-hour time-frame.
