Film evaluation

The aesthetic form and symbolic meaning of this film are far better than his later film "Golden Flower in the City". This film satirizes oriental absolutism to the bone and is an experimental work that Zhang Yimou boldly tried. Such an experimental film can be said to be rare in China's films.
