Did I miss something or is this not a 1999 film?--Ajshm 18:15, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Apparently the premier (or some screening?) was in Canada in 99 as per imdb (which I don't trust), but, however, Tom Mes lists it as a 1999 in both his book and website, that's pretty authoritative as far as sources on miike movies in english go. Ajshm 21:34, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hard Candy

Hard Candy is said to take inspiration from Audition. I haven't seen HC - is it true?--Shtove 01:15, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plot Query

Does Aoyama really reveal to the girl that the auditions were fake? I don't remember that happening. Shinji nishizono 20:58, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• Now that you mention it, I don't recall him ever telling her the truth. I think that I would have remembered ... after all, if he does tell her, then her actions could be seen as revenge for a specific event, as opposed to the bleaker alternative. I'll have to watch again and see. -- Docether 21:06, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

• I always interpreted it as her taking revenge because he had loved people other than her and therefore lied to her (i.e. because he loved his son and his late wife)

• I don't recall it being said either, the only explanation given to Asami that I remember was that the production had fallen through. --Darquefaerie 12:50, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
• Did Asami saw off (or rather... wire off) the feet of the pervert who abused her and put the burns on her body (the perv in the wheel chair who supposedly was her ballet instructor)? Ren 06:28, 9 September 2006 (UTC)Saurai
  • Unsurprisingly, the film is unclear on this point. This is a connection that a viewer might make after the fact (upon seeing the final scene with Aoyama, and the man in the bag), but it's never directly implied by the film. -- Docether 13:56, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] YouTube links

This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed or you would like to help spread this message contact us on this page. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 03:19, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
