爱你九周半 (9½ Weeks)

In the end, the mountain gave birth to a Minnie Mouse. After the 范冰冰 (Fàn Bīngbīng)’s tax scandal, and after the cancellation from China’s movie theatres of 大轰炸 (Air Strike), a Sino-U.S. World War II drama film in which she’s been starring, a reduced version of the film was distributed and broadcasted by the entertainment company Lionsgate through a selected circuit of American movie theatres on Friday, October 26, 2018. 97 minutes against the expected 132, with many scenes being cut. So 范冰冰 (Fàn Bīngbīng)’s appearance is a ghostly 9-second apparition (screengrabbed above), summed up in five shots and three pleas: “不,去地下室!” (No, to the basement!), “所有人,快点!” (everybody, hurry, come, now!), and “没事,亲爱的!” (come on, dear!).
