The Sippican Cinema Series (SCS) continues on Monday, February 28th at 7:00 PM with the film
The Last Emperor 
(Italian: L’ultimo imperatore)
(1987)
The Last Emperor is an epic biographical drama about the life of Puyi, the final Emperor of China. It is directed by Bernardo Bertolucci from a screenplay he co-wrote with Mark Peploe, which was adapted from Puyi’s 1964 autobiography and independently produced by Jeremy Thomas. It earned widespread positive reviews from critics and was also a commercial success, winning nine Oscars, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Adapted Screenplay. It also won several other accolades, including three BAFTA Awards, four Golden Globe Awards, nine David di Donatello Awards, and a Grammy Award for its musical score. The film was converted into 3D and shown in the Cannes Classics section at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.
