Experience the opulent saga of THE LAST EMPEROR (1987), restored in stunning detail in this Arrow Video 4K UHD, a cinematic masterpiece directed by Bernardo Bertolucci.

Follow the compelling life story of Puyi, the final monarch of China (the eponymous Last Emperor), as he navigates the lavish confines of the Forbidden City and confronts the tumultuous political shifts of 20th-century China. This visually mesmerizing film, a hallmark of Bertolucci's prowess, has been meticulously remastered by Arrow Video for the ultimate high-definition experience.

Bernardo Bertolucci's epic THE LAST EMPEROR film swept the Academy Awards winning nine Oscars including Best Picture and Best Director. 

THE LAST EMPEROR tells the history of China through the eyes of the man brought up to believe he was the country’s divine ruler.

Filmed on location in China, Bertolucci and Thomas were the first western filmmakers to be allowed access to previously forbidden locations.

Together with a cast including John Lone, Joan Chen and Peter O’Toole, and director of photography Vittorio Storaro’s lushly evocative cinematography, they created a classic film of sweeping scope and delicate intimacy that stunned critics and audiences alike. The Last Emperor arrives in a brand new 4K restoration that will take your breath away.

Immerse yourself in this Academy Award-winning film.
