 What was the audience's reaction to the movie The Crying Game? | Ask MetaFilter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
A Thai friend told me that in her country, where transvestitism is much more common than in the West, audiences recognized immediately that Jaye was a man in a dress, assumed that Stephen Rea also knew the score, and were surprised by Stephen's reaction when the bishop was finally introduced.
There's a scene early on where Jaye Davidson's character is singing, and there are repeated shots of his mannish hands.
When I went back the next week, there was a couple sitting in the row in front and it was clear from the man's behaviour during the first part of the film that he was bored, or thought he was too cool for this kind of arty film, or something.
