YesAsia Editorial Description

One loved money, one loved power, and one loved China...

Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh, and Vivan Woo play three of the most famous women in contemporary Chinese history in Mabel Cheung's award-winning The Soong Sisters. Educated in the United States, sisters Soong Ai Ling, Soong Ching Ling, and Soong Mei Ling were modern, forward-thinking women born in the turbulence of the Chinese civil war period. Seeing the world in different ways, each sister resolutely walked her own path and marked her name in Chinese history. Married to three of the most powerful men in China, the Soong Sisters wielded unprecedented wealth and power, but revolution would tear apart their country and their family.

Practical and resourceful, the eldest sister Ai Ling (Michelle Yeoh) married H.H. Kung, the richest man in the country. She had little concern for ideology and politics, other than their effects on business and family. The idealistic Ching Ling (Maggie Cheung) married Sun Yat-sen, the founder of modern China. Widowed at a young age, she selflessly dedicated her entire life to bettering the lives of her countrymen. The clever and forceful Mei Ling (Vivian Woo) married generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek, placing her at odds with sister Ching Ling, and eventually fled China for Taiwan in the aftermath of the revolution.

[ストーリー]
新しい時代を見た３人の女性がいた。今世紀初頭の中国で、古い因習にとらわれずに育てられた宋家の三姉妹。アメリカ留学から帰国した彼女たちは、それぞれに全く異なるパートナーを選んだ。長女・靄齢は財閥の御曹司、孔祥煕と結婚し、中国経済を左右する大財閥を築いていく。次女・慶齢は革命家・孫文と一族の反対を押し切って結婚、孫文とともに情熱のすべてを革命に捧げ、中華人民共和国成立とともに国家副主席となる。そして、三女・美齢は後に国民党政府最高指導者となる若き軍司令官蒋介石と結婚する。だが３０００年の中国王朝支配を打ち破り、中国統一を目前にして倒れた。時代の奔流は、強い絆で結ばれた三姉妹を、国をも引き裂いてゆく……。辛亥革命、西安事件、日中戦争、国共内戦・・・彼女たちは愛し、傷つき、苛酷なまでの運命に翻弄されながらも、中国の激動期を、自ら偽ることなく、ひたむきに生きた。

[解説]
中国に伝説となった三人の姉妹がいた。／ひとりは金を愛し、ひとりは権力を愛し、ひとりは国を愛した……

Blu Ray review Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10

The Blu Ray remaster finally gives this excellent film the treatment it deserves. I am very pleased with this edition. The video quality is superb. Images are sharper and colors are richer. The audio shows improvement as well. This version heightens the viewing experience of this masterpiece and is a vast improvement over the DVD I've watched for the last ten years. Well done!
