If only he would have let "her" parallel park...this would have been a shorter film. Haha!

The "find me a baby, a blonde Chinese baby" scene was from another movie, right? Because it was hilarious. Call me old fashioned but I am the kind of guy who always checks for what pieces are down there, I like visual confirmation, I'm also a fan of watching those pieces down there.

I'm just sorry he was so naive. Because this is what it was all about. About a westerner being bamboozled by a Chinese spy. He caught him from the very start, he saw right through his fascination of the play and culture, and they were exploited to full effect.

The second half would have been formed differently today, to satisfy the new crowd that I will not name. But alas, it was not the story Cronenberg wanted to show.
