Peking, 1908: A three-year-old boy is removed from his home and
mother and is carried through the night to the Forbidden City in
the heart of China. His name is Pu Yi and his abduction will alter
China’s history forever. Despite its cast of thousands, palatial
and exotic locations, and sumptuous designs, the film
remains an intimate portrait of an extraordinary and
unique man and his journey of self-discovery. The
film won nine Academy Awards®, including Best
Picture, Best Director and Best Costume Design,
for James Acheson. (35mm presentation)
James Acheson is scheduled to
