I watched this movie yesterday afternoon, and I felt very shocked. The filming time was very early and it was very real. The delicacy and collision between the two people are very interesting. The three scenes that impressed me the most in the whole film are Song Liling asking Gao Renni to light a cigarette. Song Liling said that only men know how women will react and Gao Renni committed suicide at the end.

At the end of the movie, Gao Renni was taken into prison, where he performed a performance. He began to put on makeup on the stage, dressed as Song Liling when she was singing, and he also put on a wig, which perfectly imitated an Oriental Woman, the people watching the performance from the beginning laughed at Gao Renni until the end became shocked. At the end of the performance, Gao Renni seemed to recall everything he had once, tears filled his eyes, the performance was full of tears. It was over, and Gao Renni used the mirror he performed to cut his throat and kill himself.

M. Butterfly quotes

  • Song Liling: I am slightly afraid of scandal.

  • Song Liling: Please come back. My audiences miss the white devil in their midst.
