How the tables turned! He became the oriental woman in Madame Butterfly for the 'Western'-dressed man flying away on an aircraft, who had acted like his country's diplomat and never to return. Absolute genius to capture how art inspired life that, in turn, inspired art again.
Why the fuck wasn't Jeremy Irons nominated for an Academy Award for this final scene it's so powerful "My name is Rene Gallimard also known as Madame Butterfly"
i still remember watching this movie in the early 90's,people hated this and the crying game for the themes of the movies,but this was about 2 people who had this complex love in the mist of the cold war,and even though this guy was a womanizer you kind of had to feel for what he gave up for an illusion...we all have fallen for the illusion of love at one time.but i do agree with the comments,both actors should have gotten oscars for this wonderful work.
I felt like his Orientalism and attendant stereotypical ideas left him hopelessly vulnerable to all sorts of blindness. In the end, though, you are left with him as a tragic fool who needs to incarnate his ideal to understand who he really is in the story; and you are left with John Lone's character as almost a cipher. - a contemptuous and willing tool of The State? A character whose forbidden love can only be permitted through betrayal? They both should have won big awards - Lone especially. I don't think he's acted for some years. I wonder what happened to him?
Aside from a pretty amazing ending and performance from Irons, I just need to articulate that Jeremy Irons also pulls off a very attractive face of a woman with make-up....
Did you like "Kiss of the Spider Woman" I remember all these films came out around the same time as "Howard's End". and I am not sure why Hollywood was financing some of these movies so much at the time. I was in my late teens/early 20's. Also "Altered States" and that movie with Kiefer Sutherland about dying and being brought back to life....the really hugely financed features....and who was pushing these...even at the time I was aware that some films were being pushed in a major way. Ever see "The Player"? Or "Short Cuts" (?)...all about some kind of social manipulation (as Altman showed us)
Que triste esse final. Ele se mata com o espelho. A tristeza foi profunda em seu coração. Enquanto ele se maquila diz: " Eu amei um homem que não merecia ser olhado uma segunda vez". Meu nome é Reneé Gallimard, vulgo MADAME BUTTERFLY. (e corta o pescoço sem que ninguém perceba). Coitado.
@@EstebanMataVargas did I ever say I thought it was supposed to? I was commenting on what that made ME feel. Art should make you feel an array of emotions and feelings.
O chinês foi deportado. Coitado do Reneé pensou que amava uma mulher. Ela a amou e a respeitou. Meu Deus pq isso? Ele foi motivo de riso, de deboche e chacota.

This movie is so underrated
It really is, And it's an awful lot better than the Madame Butterfly story
This monologue always gives me chills. Beautiful.

Why the fuck wasn't Jeremy Irons nominated for an Academy Award for this final scene it's so powerful

that is why the story (and a true one by the way) makes this movie so good.
I remember too, back in 93. Being blown away at the ending. A beautiful movie. Jeremy Irons displaying bravery and mastery of his art.
How could a spy fall for a fake woman
How did he not know she was a he
Aside from a pretty amazing ending and performance from Irons, I just need to articulate that Jeremy Irons also pulls off a very attractive face of a woman with make-up....
you felt that too?
He was such a beautiful man/human it’s crazy...he still is for an old dude!
parappa the hapa He is

Una gran película, el epílogo solo ya lo hacía merecedor al Oscar.

Que actuación...que Actorazo!!!
such a disturbing ending. great play and movie though. it really makes you feel uncomfortable on so many levels.
Agreed, yet one equally feels sadness.
Art is not intended to make people feel comfortable.

@@melissam.6652 Ok, just don´t cry.
que bueno es el Jeremy Irons.. un monstruo de la interpretación...
totalmente de acuerdo... creó que esta escena queda para la historia
4:30 a razor blade, his real life counterpart also tried to commit suicide with it but he survived
Jeremy amazing!
Jeremy Irons is the fucking man
Excelente y maravilloso
Jeremy Irons was not nominated because the Academy awards are more about politics, who you know and money making, than about art.
I think is fear if the homosexual situational
It was also a poorly received film upon release in 1993 and the Academy has rarely been receptive to David Cronenberg's films.
John Lone should have gotten an academy award!!!
Mi preferida 😭😢
Moment of silence for the death of the first weeb 😔
Bruh 😂
Lmao I thought that was Tom Cruise 💀
he didn't die... he survived.
maravilloso
Joder esto es cine 🚬🧐
Yes Magnificent movie.
GENIOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Irons was amazing
Por favor como faço p asistir esses filme dublado
Por favor posta.esse.filme madame manderflay
Como faço para assistir esse filme legendado por favor me diz
O chinês foi deportado. Coitado do Reneé pensou que amava uma mulher. Ela a amou e a respeitou. Meu Deus pq isso? Ele foi motivo de riso, de deboche e chacota.
Я так поняла фильм, что героя Джереми Айрона посадили в тюрьму, и он убил себя, чтобы его не замучили в тюрьме гомосексуалисты
Idk about then being homosexuals.. but they did want to do mean things to him... Hence why he TRIED commiting suicide... Unfortunately he didn't.
абсолютно не киношный сюжет....эту фигню можно смотреть только в театре с его условностями
