Raise the Red Lantern by Zhang Yimou (also known for House of Flying Daggers and directing the olympic opening/closing ceremonies) A college student gives up her life when her mother sells her to a wealthy landowner in 1920’s China. Based on the book Wives and Concubines by Su Tong. Beautifully shot. One of my favorites. liezl estiponaJuly 24, 2009 0 Likes
