Drama "Farewell, My Concubine" is a movie with two parallel, intertwined stories. It is the story of two performers in the Beijing Opera, stage brothers, and the woman who comes between them. At the same time, it attempts to do no less than squeeze the entire political history of China in the twentieth century into a three-hour time-frame.

¿Sobrevalorada? Bueno, quizá. Yo no le hubiera otorgado la Palma de Oro junto al Piano... Se me ha hecho lenta, larga; pero eso no quita se elegancia y destreza: su originalidad oriental. Pensé, en un primer momento, que la tradición y el amor eran el plato fuerte del film. Gran engaño: el plato principal es la venganza.
