	'Farewell My Concubine'
		he most compelling aspect of "Farewell My Concubine," the sumptuous, controversial new film from Chinese filmmaker Chen Kaige, is its swooning infatuation with the theater -- with its colors, its vitality and even its cruel rigors.
		The main focus of this sweeping epic is Douzi, a delicate young boy who is dropped by his mother, a prostitute, into the hands of Master Guan (Lu Qi), the head of the Peking Opera in 1925.
		And the early scenes, in which this shy, stubborn lad is introduced to the torturous discipline and physical training that all students of the opera must endure, have the bustle and textured squalor of the orphanage scenes in Dickens.

		The strifes between Wai Qi and eunuchs were not mostly based on the welfare of the civilians, but rather for their personal political ambitions.
		Hmm, are you saying since Wai Qi would generally be influential due to their relationships with the Rear Palace, the Emperor had to rely on the eunuchs to balance out the power; hence, eunuchs eventually developed into a strong force vying for control of the court with the Wai Qi?

	Farewell My Concubine by Kaige Chen, starring Leslie Cheung, Fengyi Zhang, Li Gong, Qi Lu, Da Ying: DVDNear.com
		Most impressive is how Kaige pairs the story of Dieyi, an androgynous performer who secretly pines for Xiaolou, with each stage in China's turbulent 20th-century history, leading up to the dark years of Mao's Cultural Revolution.
		While still in training, the effeminate Douzi is chosen to play the transvestite role and the masculine Shitou is chosen to play the royal role in a ritualized play about a king and a concubine.
		The actors are so good at this performance that they become identified with these roles for their entire careers; through World War II, through the takeover by the Communists, through the insanity of the Cultural Revolution, they are known for their famous parts.
