"You still love me, don't you? Do you still want me? Even if I wear a suit and tie? ”

"I'm your butterfly, under the robe... Behind everything, I will always be me. ”

In this paragraph, Song Liling played by Huang Baiyou did not wear female makeup, and her clothing was an ordinary man.

didn't wear long hair, and didn't hide the curvature of the jaw, so the appearance changed from neutral to male, even if the expression is soft, it is still undiminished, and the voice is still full of psychedelic charm, and even makes people feel that she is a woman dressed as a man, this scene completely refutes Marie Gebazz's point of view, Huang Baiyou shows genuine acting skills, and makeup is just icing on the cake.

The camel-colored reporter of Entertainment Weekly glanced at Mary Gebaz and scoffed at the way the female reporter had just lived.

It's noisy! Although the camel reporter didn't say anything, Mari Gbaz felt that this thing was noisy and talked a lot.

In addition to Marie Gebazz, there is also director Conan Boleyn, who is happy that people praise him for his ability to choose actors, but he is unhappy and only praises him for choosing actors, what about the plot itself?

No, critics' attention has focused on the androgynous of Stantin Wong and Babette.

"It is better to die vigorously than to live mediocre."

"In the end, in prison...... Far away from Huaxia, I found her. My name is Galima aka Madame Butterfly. ”

At the end of the movie, Barbett contributed the performance of the actor, playing the role of Galima who committed suicide in despair!

Many emotional viewers were moved by Garima's monologue before committing suicide, and the whole film ended under the retrospect of Song Liling getting on the plane.

That's it? Somerset was surprised, feeling that this ending was too perfunctory, and he thought there would be a monologue scene by Song.

Bius, who had seen the stage of Butterfly Jun's play, seemed to see his friend's doubts, and he explained: "Because the last scene of the stage is Galima commits suicide and falls to the ground after reading the monologue, with the music "Duet of Love", a strong light illuminates Song Liling in the dark, Song's last gaze is fixed on the dead Galimar, smokes a cigarette, and reads the last line 'Butterfly?' Butterfly? ’。 ”

"At the end of this ending, Galima and Song's identities are instantly reversed, my butterfly, who is whose butterfly in the end, no wonder it can win the Tony Award for Best Drama, a wonderful and shocking ending." Somerset doesn't like to watch dramas, but it is really shocking to be able to imagine the shock of the final curtain.

Don't think that the expression of film is necessarily better than drama, any art form has advantages, just like the final curtain of "Butterfly King", even if it is a montage cross-editing, or even parallel splicing, it is difficult to reach the height of the stage. When Garima commits suicide, Song stands in the dark, illuminated by the footlight, staring at the shock of her lover's corpse on the same stage.

Somerset sighed, he thought he was anticlimactic, but when the film's cast rolled over, he still had to stand up and applaud.

The applause in the theater, polite applause, perfunctory applause, and applause conquered by the film.

The conquest was mainly conquered by the acting skills of Huang Baiyou and Babette, but the overall reviews of the film were mixed.

When I walked out of the theater, there was a lot of discussion-

"Statin Wong's acting skills are so much better than I expected, my God, I even want to go back and delete all the statements I doubted before." Some filmmakers said.

"Far from his best, Conan's strange film shot in Berlin was more like a rare misstep that castrated a challenging drama in a conservative way." Some critics think it's substandard.

"The stage is far superior to the film, and the only ones who can maintain the same level as the theater are Stantin Wong and Babette." Some media people threw the pot to the director.

Wait, more media people want to interview Stantin Wong.

But when they learned that they were rejected by the customs, they all sighed, and the European and American media didn't know anything about Song Liling's actor, and they all wanted to dig out more news about the genius of Chinese performance.

Retreating to the second, interview the other leading actor of the film, Barbett, an Oscar-winning actor, and an old acquaintance of the media.

As for Fernanda...... said that she is the heroine, it is better to say that Huang Baiyou is the heroine, after watching the movie, the reporters knew in their hearts that Fernanda was pulled to fill the scene to pull the box office, considering the relationship between the director and Fer, it is normal.

There are many films screened at the New York Film Festival, but there are no films with a stronger lineup than "Butterfly", so the attention continues to be high.

Film critics and journalists also appeared one after another. A small screening of two articles for the unlucky ghosts who have grown so old and haven't crossed over yet.

"This Tony Award-winning drama adaptation of David Henry Wong is very romantic and even tasteful in some ways. It mainly involves the deconstruction of the colonial concept of the work of the Italian opera master Giacomo Puccini, as well as the repression, misogyny, and obsession with the flesh that is consistent in the work of director Conan Boleyn. The film has no special effects and a dangerous plot, but it is still a charming psychological opera. - Entertainment Weekly

"It would be the worst of the clinical makeovers of the drama, and it would turn a wonderful Broadway play into a bloody love story. This would be the most unsuccessful work of Conan Boleyn's directorial career. - "Hollywood Position News"

How successful was Huang Baiyou's performance? Looking at the evaluation of the position newspaper, they stopped attacking the actors, and began to attack the director and the whole film.

The film production company is Searchlight Film and Television, which is an independent company, so it has to go to the New York Film Festival to expand its fame, because although Searchlight Film and Television is one of the few entertainment companies with publicity and distribution capabilities in addition to the six major Hollywood companies, its publicity and distribution capabilities are really limited.

With the popularity of the New York Film Festival, it promoted the global release of the film (except for China), but the results were very average, and the box office in North America in the first week was only 31.79 million US dollars.

We all know that North America refers to the United States and Canada, this achievement is very average for the movie, and it can't be said that it is on the street, but it is definitely not good, the weekly box office list is only barely squeezed into the top20, and the agency predicts that the North American box office is about 80 million, compared with the production cost and publicity fee of the film's 35 million, relying on the overseas market can barely recover the cost, and the later film disc release can make some money.

Compared to the boost brought by the New York Film Festival and the film lineup, this result is really bad.

However, Huang Baiyou has been widely acclaimed.

"'Butterfly King' is a drama that I personally love, and when the actors were announced, I was also worried that the new actors would not be able to play Song's uniqueness, and I apologized for my arrogance, Stantin Wong is a good actor, but it's not a good movie."

"Babette is in his forties, and Stantin Wong is less than thirty years old, both of them contributed wonderful performances in the film, and I actually think that Stantin Wong, who is less than thirty years old, is stronger."

"Stantin's acting skills that make people want to take a shower can't save this movie."

Wait, that's probably it.
