Spectacular, Sublime - The Politics of Marriage...
by Xstal2020-05-25
8/10

"Just another, in a very, very long list of films that document the abuses and misery suffered by women - this time in 1920s China but take a decade of any country and you'll find a plethora of these films. It's a shame that such a huge amount of material exists in the first place, let alone that it continues to this day. That said, the visuals are spectacular, the acting sublime, it is a beautiful thing to behold and the message is well and truly received and understood: we know who is in charge!..."

Filmed at the Qiao Family Compound near the city of Pingyao. The complex is now open for tours, however, nowhere is there any mention of the film.
