Thursday February 9, 2006 Hong Kong The poster for the Miriam's movie "2 Become 1" has been banned from Hong Kong subways due to its apparent vulgarity. The movie, due for release in Asia on March 2nd, co-stars Richie Ren and Miriam Yeung and is directed by Wing-cheong Law. The poster depicts a half-naked woman with her breasts showing through computer jigsaw effects. The actress Miriam Yeung has reacted strongly to the ban stating there is no pornography in the movie. The design is apparently meant as a positive promotion for women’s public health. If the breast was wholly hidden, the poster’s message wouldn’t work at all. The subway department seems too sensitive regarding the subject of female breasts. The movie is adapted from a novel called “Mourning for Breast”. In a comedic manner it tells the story of white-collar Bingbing, a woman suffering from breast cancer. The amusing but moving movie has won viewer group approval as well as praise from the State Administration of Radio, Film and TV. http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2006-02/09/content_4154604.htm
I am not sure... for an "mature" person, he/she shouldn't feel offended, since there isn't anything to look at.
ahahha when 2 become 1... thats the name of a Spice Girls song. is it me or do those 'pieces' not match with the body?
i see nothing wrong at least it make a good promotion effect for a very cheap price. Right now everyone is looking for it. Human just like thing that is being banned.
that is totally stupid, the Breast Cancer Society always have posters out of a women half naked with nipples covered..and they are okay with it...omg
A lot of time certain association just protest just for the sake of protesting to get their names on the newspaper. For example, the company that was blocking Rain from using his name on his tour, they were using that news to promote their own band which have no exposure to the public at all.
