    Once Emperor of China, Master of the Imperial City, and then a member of the Red Chinese Congress! If you have seen the movie, The Last Emperor, the 1987 movie by Bernardo Bertolucci starring John Lone, you probably thought of course none of those things could really happen.But they did happen.
