A MOViE Date With Edward Lam : THE LAST EMPEROR + THE TRUTH

So near to the cinema and yet so far from each other – Edward Lam invites you for a MOViE date double bill

THE TRUTH
Palme d’Or winning director Hirokazu Kore-eda's first non-Japanese-language film stars Catherine Deneuve, Juliette Binoche & Ethan Hawke in an elegant yet fraught family drama set in Paris. Veteran actress Fabienne’s new autobiography prompts a stormy reunion with her daughter, Lumir, who is herself a successful screenwriter.

THE LAST EMPEROR
Directed and co-written by Bernardo Bertolucci and scored by Japanese maestro Ryuichi Sakamoto, THE LAST EMPEROR tells the epic story of Pu-Yi, the last emperor of China, and won an incredible 9 Oscars, including Best Picture.

Watching a double bill at the cinema exemplifies the art of self-romance. Would you spare an afternoon to arrange a lovey-dovey MOViE date with yourself?
