    Based on true events. Truly a legendary love. So cruel! It was filmed by David Cronenberg. Tsk tsk, Zunlong's female costume is even more charming and moving than Chen Kun in "Dragon Gate Flying Armor". There are quite a few scenes shot in China. Really kill. Unfortunately, the overall style is too dark and incoherent. I don't know what Shi Peipu, the prototype character, commented on the film

    Curious works by Westerners for Westerners. To this day, only Zunlong's pink makeup and jade-carved body is worth seeing.

M. Butterfly quotes

  • Rene Gallimard: Our world is changing. We French lost our war in Indochina because we failed to learn about the people we sought to lead. It's natural, therefore - correct, even - that they should resent us. How could they do otherwise, when we refused to treat them like fellow human beings?

  • Rene Gallimard: The Oriental woman: when she's good, she's very very very good. But when she's bad, she's Christian!
