A dramatic history of Pu Yi, the last of the Emperors of China, from his lofty birth and brief reign in the Forbidden City, the object of worship by half a billion people; through his abdication, his decline and dissolute lifestyle; his exploitation by the invading Japanese, and finally to his obscure existence as just another peasant worker in the People's Republic.

@moviegeek I know, lol. I checked out your review. I liked it fine, I just didn't think it deserved to win Best Pic that year.

@dan1 Definitely. Movies like this are exactly why the Academy has a lot of skeptics.

@thedude-abides At 2 hours 40 minutes, that's a long sit, too...

This movie was a series of one plot after another, with absolutely no story whatsoever. None. This was one of the worst Best Picture winners I've ever seen. Not a bad movie, but a terribly overrated movie.
