Demet's Favorite Movies
Ba wang bie ji (Farewell My Concubine)
R
A true gem of Chinese cinema. Leslie Cheung's top performance ever, and Gong Li is undeniably impressive. The way Leslie Cheung uses his body and how he alters his voice to reflect Dieyi's rather feminine character is incredible. We also get a chance to see You Ge, another very talented actor. My favorite movie of all times. I'm pretty sure nothing can surpass this one.
Raise the Red Lantern (Da hong deng long gao gao gua)
PG
One of the early movies that brought Gong Li under the spotlight. She displays all her acting talent. "San tai tai" He Sai Fei's performance is also very much noticeable.
