Talk:Caterpillar (2010 film)

Description of sex in the movie
I haven't seen this movie, but the sex scenes have been described as "sado-masochistic". Should the description of the sex imposed on the wife be changed to "brutal, perverse sex" (which is more extreme than "rough")? If so, please change.Ghostofnemo (talk) 13:46, 21 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, I thought it was ordinary sex, but the soldier's wife was uncomfortable having her husband with no limbs and huge facial scars having sex with her. She initiated the sex in some scenes and at one point was apparently upset when her husband was not capable of performing due to post-traumatic stress disorder.

 * The way I saw it, it was only before the war that he had been raping her. Once he came home, it seemed that on several occasions that it was the wife who was raping him. 69.250.169.99 (talk) 16:26, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

Lead section of article
I don't think this belongs in the lead section of the article. This is all covered later. It's strange and the English is not correct:
 * "The film, the political reversal of the right-wing militarist nationalist movies that glorified Japan fascist past, confronts those values with the depiction of acrobatic sex; a war criminal of the Second Sino-Japanese War, comes back home as a hero but having lost all his limbs, with only is torso and medals remaining. His wife will take here of him and of his insatiable sexual demands." I've removed it pending further discussion.Ghostofnemo (talk) 02:02, 26 February 2010 (UTC)


 * How about this: The film is a critique of the right-wing militarist nationalism that guided Japan's conduct in Asia during the Second Sino-Japanese War.Ghostofnemo (talk) 02:19, 26 February 2010 (UTC)


 * I've added a bit more. What do you think?Ghostofnemo (talk) 02:35, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

Scourges?
When describing Lt. Kurokawa's abuse of Chinese people, the word "scourges" is used. We don't use this word often, at least not in American English. Do you mean "whips" or "beats"?Ghostofnemo (talk) 02:46, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
