Tai-Pan is a 1986 film directed by Daryl Duke, loosely based on James Clavell's 1966 novel of the same name. While many of the same characters and settings appear, Clavell's masterful epic story was muddled and drowned in this Dino De Laurentiis cinematic version. Filmed under communist Chinese censorship, much of Clavell's story was considered too offensive to be filmed as written and considerable changes were made.

  • Tai-Pan is a 1986 film directed by Daryl Duke, loosely based on James Clavell's 1966 novel of the same name. While many of the same characters and settings appear, Clavell's masterful epic story was muddled and drowned in this Dino De Laurentiis cinematic version. Filmed under communist Chinese censorship, much of Clavell's story was considered too offensive to be filmed as written and considerable changes were made. The De Laurentiis Entertainment Group handled the production and were actively seen battling the Chinese Government and Labor boards over the film during shooting. It was this sort of government intervention that the character of Dirk Struan was so ardently against. The results fared poorly at the box office and in critical reviews. Director Daryl Duke believed that a mini-series à la Shogun would have been a far superior means of covering the complexity of Clavell's novel.
