M Butterfly ENGLISH (3/11)

[TheDreamingMaya]

I think that the way Rene acts at the start can explain why he didn't know - he seemed to not hold Asia in very high regard

[Moonstone2732]

Guess he isn't as smart as he acts. Even I knew they didn't let girls performXD and I don't read that much of chinese culture

[MisterSnig]

That's a midget in a bathrobe.

[StandByMe42]

Ohhhhkaaay, there's a mix of Cantonese and Mandarin being spoken in this film. When Song's servant let Rene in, she spoke Cantonese! But the movie takes place in Beijing!

[mshayashi]

Why there's no subtitles where they talk in mandarin?

[Quadet4Music]

ok, everyone below me.. u guys are funny haha i cant tell if ure argueing with one another or just making a discussion?

[beadbop]

@Quadet4Music Hey, this is really important stuff going on here! The good/funny folks (like me) are trying to talk some sense into the evil toad and village idiot, SaintHagfag.

You are welcome to join us in this sacred quest! All that is required is that you have a sense of humour, and believe in the right of free speech for everybody, even r-tards like the Ain't-Saint.

The fate of the entire universe may rest in our hands. Will you join us?

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman How incredibly amusing that your gibbering comment of lies and desperation ended up in MY inbox, indicative of your undisputed title of Village Idiot of the Internet.

May the New Year bring you all of the karma that you have so rightfully earned, demon dolly Rachel! 

[hellenistic]

Knowing Mandarin and English really pays off with movies like this. The interchange between the old man and Gallimard is wonderful to understand both.

[TheMryvory]

un film puissant que j'ai adoré! surtout l'acteur que lon peut voir dans une version moderne de "lolita" à voir absolument !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tghooker]

is this movie alot like the play was written or is it really different

[LadyGem68]

@ 1:24 Typical woman, going thru his pockets, sniffing his clothes...won't she just save herself the trouble and just ask him what she wants to know instead expecting him to tell her! SMH!!!

[nauort23]

How did this guy get a diplomatic post in a country where he cannot speak ONE word of the language?

[joshuaspolar]

@nauort23

he said "ni hao!"

and shay shay (i don't know how to spell it)

[beadbop]

@TheOneTrueradavis76 Damn Mongolians!

[TheOneTrueradavis76]

@beadbop Did you know that they conquered nearly all of Europe on their war camels. They were fearsome warriors that had invented the boomerang and used it to strike fear into all their weaker enemies. Europe begged for help from America as usual but we were in the middle of our own civil war at the time. Genghis Khan slept with every mongolian woman and even to this day all mongolians are his biological children!

[beadbop]

@TheOneTrueradavis76 Hey. Wait just a cotton-pickin' second here. That comment of yours was *intelligent* and contained no obscenities, so there's no way you can be radavis76!

[TheOneTrueradavis76]

@beadbop Sorry you failed psychologist, I meant to say SCUMFUCKER! LIAR! YOU RUINED MY LIFE! And veal comes from sheep! I will not answer any of your non-questions!

[beadbop]

@TheOneTrueradavis76 O-kay! That's more like it!

Yes, you definitely are The One True Radavis76, may God rest your bullied and murdered soul.

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman How fascinating that you responded to a month-old comment that was not directed to you, and that you censored two comments while you were here.

You are a troll and a loser of infinite proportions. Take your murdered radavis76 account and shove it up your unused vadge.

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman What a censored tranny!

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman A feminazi tranny who was born a man and hasn't finished his operation! He still needs to make an appointment with Dr. Grant MD.

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman But he knows that you have AIDS! You're HIV positive! Just give up on yourself! You're already miserable!

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman But you fucked a lot of horses your whole life! You're a bestiality tranny!

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman I will keep saying it till you give the world up!

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman Okay sockpuppet! Give up this gang you call feminazism! You're brain-damaged!

[p1gta1p]

@SaintHangman Feminazism promotes segregation and violence between the sexes.

[xenaphobe73]

@SaintHangman It does not matter whether you 'recognize' him as your doctor or not. The truth and fact is that he IS your Doctor! You have no choice but to see him because you are under orders of the mental health act. Something needs to be done to stop diseased lunatics like you going on public web sites like YouTube an spouting your dangerous delusional fantasies!

[xenaphobe73]

@SaintHangman But you are not 100% healthy are you demon dolly? You would not be able to claim life long ssi payments if you were! So which is it, are you a lying fraud fleecing the taxpayer or are you mentally or physically defective?

And before your usual response it is not a 'non-question' it is a very relative question relating directly to your often repeated declarations.

[raydavis76returns]

@SaintHangman You shall be punished for your hate crimes against humanity you evil instrument of misery and discord. I am infused with the knowledge of truth and righteousness and as such am immune to your pathetic attempts to frame me for your sick perverted crimes you disease riddled lunatic!

[beadbop]

@raydavis76returns I am here to serve you in the banishment of this freak. Please send all secret orders to my email, and I shall obey without question, oh holy one!

Thank you for the anointment of your daily blessings, RAYDAVIS!

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman Smirk all you want, turnip face.

The great and all-powerful RAYDAVIS is still on Facebook and MySpace!

Every time you snitch on somebody, you earn another bad karma cookie. You must have a collection of several thousand bad karma cookies by now.

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman Whether you believe my gibberish or not is your choice, but you *are* a narc and a snitch.

I *loved* your "news flash" about holy RAYDAVIS being cut down with "the sword of fire" by your radavis76 persona -- oh, you were so boastful and pleased and proud of your snitchery! Speaking of gibberish, you didn't have a clue what you were talking about.

How's that revocation of my psych license coming along? And my big cross-international Assange-style arrest for libel and espionage? :)

[TheInquisitorGeneral]

@SaintHangman The proper raydavis76 has not been banned from myspace or facebook you demented liar. NOTHING you ever say is the truth, and that is because you are a witch and they are incapable of telling the truth.

[beadbop]

@TheInquisitorGeneral

"Everything I say is right ...because I am right!"

You gotta love that simpleton circular logic.

Rachel's having a real schizoid split, right in front of our eyes. Weren't the insane considered to be witches back in the day?

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman You bet, dolly! ;)

The fanatic narcissist -- A person whose self-esteem was severely arrested in childhood, who displays major paranoid tendencies, and who holds on to an illusion of omnipotence. These people try to re-establish their self-esteem through grandiose fantasies, and they neutralize devaluation by seeing others as unjust abusers.When unable to gain recognition of support from others, they take on the role of a heroic or worshipped person with a grandiose mission.

[xenaphobe73]

@SaintHangman Yet another lie you despicable warthog of the damned, It is common knowledge that you are on meds for all your mental health issues and that Dr Grant is your doctor. Just suck down another pill and stop your false delusions.

[beadbop]

@SaintHangman

What's in a name? That which we call a radavis

By any other word would smell as foul;

So radavis would, were he not radavis call'd,

Retain that vast imperfection which he owes

Without that title. radavis, doff thy name,

And for thy name, which is no part of thee,

Fake, hang thy self.

[lighthousedreamers]

@nauort23

Yeah, I wondered that too. I thought: 'How can he be an ambassador or something like that when doesn't know Chinese.' It surprised me, lol

[LadyFlusterbustle]

I love the clever way Cronenberg shows the ambiance.

[kbundy023]

I am very surprise that they don't know the chinese culture... The chinese opera does not allow female perform.... If he knows the culture of china, this wouldn't be happened...

[gmoney66]

@kbundy023 That's the main theme of the film and play, though, how different and mysterious the two cultures are to each other.

[elexiee]

@kbundy023 well thats the point. they wanted to show that whites can be so ignorant to the culture to think a a chinese woman could be so submisive like the one in the opera. a lot of this is explained in the trial.

[IOWAisSlipknot]

dude looks like a lady!!_lol

[helizoan]

What a flirt
