Country: China
Directed by Zhang Yuan
Although I am disappointed from the second part of the movie ,when the narration begin to lose connection with reality, getting more and more pretentious , I give a lot of credits to this movie not only because is the first film produced in mainland China that discuss openly the homosexuality and its oppression there ( actually is banned in China and was smuggled out the country to have the chance to be watched ). 'East Palace, West Palace', in most of its duration, is powerful, direct, bold , intense and at times emotional ,the kind of movie that you get yourself drown on it , without to be able to stop to watch it
