Bernardo Bertolucci's 1987 epic The Last Emperor has
been newly restored in 4k and released on UHD by Arrow Video. The film,
which won Best Picture, Best Director and seven other awards at the Oscars,

includes John Lone, Joan Chen and Peter O'Toole.
Check out Arrow's new trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
Following the life of Pu Yi, the last of the Emperors of China, from his birth in 1908 through his childhood in the fortress-like Forbidden City and his later misguided collaboration with the Japanese in World War II, The Last Emperor tells the history of China through the eyes of the man brought up to believe he was the country’s divine ruler.
