Farewell My Concubine Uncut 4K Restoration 霸王别姬

Cheng Dieyi (Leslie Cheung) and Duan Xiaolou (Zhang Fengyi) grow up enduring the harsh training of the Peking Opera (Jing-Ju) Academy, where instructors regularly beat the students to instill in them the discipline needed to master the complex physical and vocal techniques of this ancient art. As the two boys mature, they develop complementary talents: Dieyi, with his fine, delicate features, assumes the female roles (Dan-Jue) while Xiaolou plays masculine warlords (Sheng-Jue). Their dramatic identities become real for Dieyi when he falls in love with Xiaolou, who fails to fully reciprocate his affections and marries a courtesan, Juxian (Gong Li), creating a dangerous, jealousy-filled romantic triangle.

Hailed as a “cultural achievement” (The New York Times) and widely considered one of the most important motion pictures ever made, Farewell My Concubine is a “gorgeous, intoxicating epic” (Los Angeles Times) that is both “visually spectacular” and “sumptuous in every respect” (Time Out). Spanning 50 years from the early 20th century to the tumultuous Cultural Revolution, Chen Kaige's passionate, exquisitely shot film captures the vast historical scope of a changing country while revealing the intimate and touching details of a unique, tender, heartrending love story. Based on the bestselling novel by Lillian Lee, it was selected as one of the “100 Best Films in Global History” by TIME Magazine, was awarded the Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film, and remains the only Chinese-language film to ever win the Palme d’Or.

《霸王别姬》改编自李碧华同名小说，由陈凯歌执导，张国荣、巩俐、张丰毅主演的电影。本片获得第46届法国戛纳电影节金棕榈奖，成为第一部也是迄今唯一获得此奖项的华语电影。亦被视为有史以来最伟大的华文电影之一。此外，该片还荣获美国金球奖最佳外语片，以及第66届奥斯卡最佳外语片奖提名，并于2005年被美国《时代》周刊评为“百大不朽电影”之一。2006年，《首映》杂志将巩俐饰演的“菊仙”列为“有史以来最伟大表演100位”第89名。

片源为2023年为纪念本片上映30周年，而重新修复的 4K 无删减版本，比早先上院线版多出约 20 分钟。
