Nessun Dorma (2016) - full transcript

Many girls think
they're a princess in distress,

and if a prince comes to her rescue,

she'll live happily ever after

But Turandot is not just any princess

She sets conditions

Whoever rescues her must solve 3 riddles

Any wrong answer...

results in death

The princess wants to be rescued,

but not by a moron

Don't mess up your make-up,



many reporters are out there waiting

You know that ring won't look good in photos

It's too small

You'll find it embarrassing, not me

Yes, I agree, I'll talk with him about that

- Good night
- Yes!

I really need to talk with them

Bye!

Your car has arrived, get in, Mom!

- Oh,yes
- Mom

OK, OK

Make sure you wear a mask

Put away the dog farm for now

- You don't look pretty when you're tired, OK?
- OK



- She is very pretty
- Don't forget!

- Bye! Good night
- An eye mask, don't forget!

- Bye!
- Bye!

Get in!

- Bye!
- Bye!

Good night

I like your mother more and more

I'll marry her later, too

Be careful

- Have you got it, Cheung?
- Yes

Yes!

What?

Nothing serious.

Your mom says we're on the cover,
she's very happy

But some relatives told her that...

your ring is as tiny as a mustard seed

Yet her uncle's new daughter-in-law's
is as big as an egg

Your mom finds it OK herself

She just wants you to be the happiest bride

Never mind about her

Really?

She's very aggressive

Actually she's right about it

Try it on

I haven't seen it myself,
Cheung has just got it back

It looks pretty big

I decided to live on my own because of my mom

I know

Let me see it on you

But it doesn't mean the same any more

The old one looks quite all right

I bought both, change it

Change this? My name is engraved on it

I'll take care of it

Done!

$300,000 has just gone into
your Love Pet's account

Thank you

I want more than that

Are you tired?
You've been yawning all night long

That opera was long and boring,
and I don't speak French

It was in Italian, Turandot

The only opera set in China

Puccini blends Chinese folksongs
into the melody, too

But is there a problem with the princess?

She seems to hate men

All the men going after her
are princes with high status and power

There's an explanation for that

Some man raped the princess' ancestor

Was there a rape scene? I must've fallen asleep

It could have been more entertaining

If there was such a scene, I'd enjoy it more

Yes? What?

I'll be there as soon as I can

Going out so late at night?

Business is business

How else could I earn the ring
and the homeless dog food money?

I hate to say goodbye

OK

Good night

- Good night
- Good night

Cheung!

Cheung!

Time to go

Miss Tsang

A friend of yours left an envelope for you

Thank you

Miss Tsang, I'm quitting in 2 days

Why? You've been doing a good job

Because some residents
have complained about my looks

I'll talk to the condo's Administrator,
see if that helps

Thanks, but no thanks, Miss Tsang

I want to spend some time in my home town

I read in the newspaper that
you're getting married

Congratulations!

Thank you

Take care

[Fong Mo Chit]

[Fong Mo Chit]

Why did you give me back the keys of the farm?

You promised to look after the dogs

Sorry!

You know I'm getting married next week

Don't you have anything to say to me?

Really no?

What else can I say but "Congratulations!"?

Then say it!

I can't give you the life you live

I don't want us getting together on impulse

When the feelings are gone,

whoever gets ditched is sad

You should understand
how pathetic it is to be ditched

Jasmine!

Many people hope their lives are a constant

Everything can be done easier that way

Too bad that's not how things go

Life is a variable,

it has N possibilities...

as well as X reasons

You wouldn't know
how to calculate this equation

Sorry!

Look me in the eye

I want you to look me in the eye, Fong Mo Chit

I don't want you to regret it

Jasmine!

This is the bravest thing I have ever done

I know what I'm doing

I won't regret it

Help!

anybody here?

anybody here?

Let me go!

Help!

Who are you?

Why are you locking me up here?

Let me go!

I haven't done anything wrong, let me go

Don't!

[Fong Mo Chit]

[Fong Mo Chit]

[Love Pets I

Come on, be good

Excuse me!

Excuse me, do you take in dogs here?

It doesn't look like a stray

It's mine

Yours?

Why are you giving it away? It's so cute

Can you look after it for me?

Looking after it is not a problem,

on one condition though

You must take it home

No problems

- Here
- Thank you

What's its name?

Pi

Pie as in apple pie

Pi as in circumference

3.1416

It should be 31415926535897932384...

-...62643383279
- Come on in first

Pi never ends

This way

Come over and eat something, Pi

Something to eat

When was Pi born?
I need to jot down its birthday

It was born July 13, 2009

Do you know many people
don't know their dogs' birthdays?

Pi is a Cancer

It was born at 2:00 pm

That was a Monday, temperature 29,

relative humidity 80,

average ultra-violet index 5

Do you remember
all your friends' birthdays then?

Yes!

Do you know when I was born?

How would I know?

How about the date the first dog
was taken in here:

February 6, 2014

It was a Thursday that day

The temperature at 9:00 am
that day was 18 degrees

relative humidity 89,

average ultra-violet index 3, low

That's a super party trick,
you must be very popular at clubs

I've never been to any

Let me guess what day of the week
you were born?

There're 7 days in a week,
you have a 1-in-7 chance

Monday

How did you know?

That's why I said you don't need a gift
when you're in luck

[Fong Mo Chit]

[Gifted children of the 80s the Hong Kong]

Autistic gifted Fong Mo Chit,
broke the record in Asia at the age of 4

[Gifted-children database]

Do you need help?

There you are!

Yeah, come on over.
That volunteer couple had a fight

and won't come any more

I need help in the afternoon

I'm free in the afternoons

Don't you need to go to work?

I haven't got a full-time job yet

Are you serious? I'll get you a key then

OK

How are you, Pi?

Good bye, Mr. Fong

Good bye

Good bye

Mr. Fong

Hi

[Love Pets I

Here's your keys, thank you

What's all this about?

This is the Monty Hall Problem

It's about logic and probability;
many people argue over it

How do you play it?

3 cups are in each row on the desk here

An animal is hiding in 2 of the cups,

and a car in the 3rd one

You pick any 1 cup,
and take home whatever is in it

The grand prize is the car, of course

If so, I should have 1-in-3
chance of getting the car

I want no. 2

I'm opening one cup now. It's an animal

We still don't know where the car is hiding

What's most interesting is...

would you switch your choice
if you were given another chance?

My chance is now 50/50, why would I switch?

So you've lost the grand prize

It doesn't make sense!

Let me choose again

I want no. 1

Would you switch?

No!

Sorry!

It's impossible! I seldom have such bad luck

Couldn't get the car even with a 50% chance

Many people think the same,
actually it isn't a 50% chance

What is it if the choice between 2
isn't a 50% chance?

You have a choice among 3 to start,

which means a 1-in-3 chance to guess right,

and a 2-in-3 chance to guess wrong

Because 2/3 is bigger than 1/3,

so the chance of guessing wrong is higher

The so called "luck" you mentioned,

only means you have a second chance

Yet a second chance isn't for everyone

Now someone is willing to show you...

one of the 2 wrong cups

As for the essence of the Monty Hall Problem,

If you are given a chance to switch, you should

I understand what you're saying,

but I don't like your assumption that
my choice must be wrong at the start

This is not an assumption

This is probability,
it's the power of Mathematics, it's reliable

But you can't use Mathematics
to solve everything in life

That's why I set up this game
to prove to all those who don't believe it

Fine! I still believe in myself.
Let me prove to you I was right

Do it again! I pick no. 2

[Love Pets I

Why are you locking me up here?

Let me go!

Do you want money?

I can give you money

What are you doing?

I can give you money

Let me go, let me go!

Let me go!

Let me go!

Let me go!

Marry me!

You must cherish what you've got, Miss Tsang

What do you mean?

You're smart enough to know

Has anything happened to Mr. Lee?

Hello, Mr. Lee?

OK, I'm coming right now

ls Mr. Lee going out again?

Cheung!

Where's Pi?

I always ask the helpers to lock the doors

- Pi...
- Pi...Pi...

- Pi...Pi...
- Pi...

Pi...

Stay where you are

What happened?

Is it Pi?

What happened to it?

Mimi took Pi home

Who's Mimi?

My wife

She had the postpartum blues

Now that Pi is gone,

it's gone with her forever

You were right

Not everything in life can be accounted for

Mimi, I came back from school

I'm home

You get some more sleep, I'll feed the baby

What's happen?

Let me do it

OK

Be careful

- Wet the towel, please!
- OK

Mimi!

Mimi!

Are you OK, Miss Tsang?

I want to go home

Are you not feeling well?

Would you like to go to the hospital?

No!

What's the problem? You're scaring me!

Why didn't you knock first?

Can't you see my hands are full?

There's gonna be a lot of reporters tomorrow

You'll be in the spotlight,
so you must look your best

Especially this vintage wedding dress

Do you know the shipping alone cost me
an arm and a leg?

It came all the way from France
for you to try on,

then was flown back for alterations

Now it's here again, a real rush

The whole world is waiting to see you wear it

It's your luck to be my daughter

My body was even better when I married your dad

I would've been on the front page for sure
if I had this dress

Put it on then!

Nonsense!

Mr. Lee

Have a sip!

Mr. Lee

Excuse me, I want to go to the toilet

Am)'

What's Wrong?

Mad at me?

You're getting married

Marrying her only means keeping her at home,

that gives me time to keep you happy here

Get in the car

See you

Thank you

- Thank you, Mr. Lee
- Bye

What's Wrong?

Jealous?

I just wanted some fun that night

Don't be greedy

Tsang Sze Man, please!

Miss Tsang

Doctor Yu

Wait outside, please!

What would you like to tell me, Miss Tsang?

I want some morning-after pills

You don't want a baby now?

I'm not ready yet

OK, you're old enough to do what you want

But let me remind you that...

taking that pill within 72 hours after sex...

still leaves you
an 89% chance of getting pregnant

Lee Wai San,

do you take Tsang Sze Man
to be your lawful wedded wife...

for as long as you both shall live?

I do

Tsang Sze Man,

do you take Lee Wai San
to be your lawful wedded husband...

for as long as you both shall live?

I do

Please exchange your rings

What happened to you in the church?

L...was very nervous

You got a new driver? What happened to Cheung?

He quit

He didn't do a good job anyway

What have you done?

Who was he?

Who took you to bed?

I was raped

Why didn't you report to the police?

What would I tell the police?

What could I say to them?

I couldn't report to the police

I don't want any trouble for our families

Who knows if you are telling me the truth

I'm not lying, every word is true

Not lying? Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Everything is booked,
you're forcing me to marry you

Do you know why I wanted to marry you?

Because you were clean

Don't think you can gang up on me,
I won't give you a penny

Not your mom either

What the fxxk!

Let's divorce then

It's not up to you

Get married today, then a divorce tomorrow

What am I, a clown?

Why haven't you changed?

Don't cry

I'll be out there

What happened?

Thank you

Thank for coming

If ever you get pregnant,

it's gonna be your problem

Right now, don't do anything stupid

I'll divorce you only
when I feel like it, if not...

Are you listening?

Are you?

Stop Crying

God knows which one of us struck a bad patch,

fxxk you!

Get up!

Get up!

Don't worry, I'm not gonna touch you

Take all your stuff with you
to the maid's room,

I want to keep my place clean

Mr. Lee

Mr. Lee

Thank you, Mr. Lee

Thank you

Thank you

Thank you, Mr. Lee

Cheers, Mr. Lee

Thank you

Hello? The goods have arrived

You can have them in 3 days

Pay me first

OK. bye!

Sorry, I didn't expect to see you two here

Aren't you on your honeymoon?

I changed the plan

Since you're back,
may we have a day off, Miss Tsang?

A day off? When?

Today

We wish to go to the Marriage Registry...

to get a booking

Well, congratulations, really!

Don't worry,
I'll get someone to help me out here

[Fong Mo Chit]

It's OK, take care of your family first

Thank you

Are you ripping me off, too, John?

Are you?

Didn't you say you wouldn't come
to help out anymore?

There are many things
one cannot take account of

A perfect equation...

takes up much time and effort...

to test and verify

Then the answer turns out
to be very simple actually

I've come to realize that you were right

My choice would be different...

if I were given a second chance

I should stop myself
when something has gone wrong

My mind has become clear...

since I met you

I know I won't be able to
take this for too long

I'll leave Vincent soon

You will be with me, right?

We need to talk

- I'm busy
- I want a divorce

I want a divorce now!

Do you need a hearing aid?

I said...

only when I feel like it, wait 6 months!

[Have you ever thought of
you were a scapegoat?)

[Whose scapegoat?]

[Vincent Lee]

[Are you taking revenge on Lee Wai San?)

[Do you think he's a nice man?)

[Did you send him the photos?)

[You haven't given any answer yet]

(No, he isn't]

[He should pay for what he has done]

[Why should I be punished?
I haven't done anything evil]

[Would you like to join me?]

(How?)

[He's smuggling gold
for the Taiwan underground banks, 1

[I need evidence of his crime]

[Get me the captcha code from his mobile]

[I'll fix the rest]

[Fong Mo Chit]

Hello

What are you doing?

Don't come near me

I know what you did

You will go to jail

What did I do?

I have the evidence

You are doomed as soon as I push this button

Do you know it's rude
to steal somebody's phone?

- Give me back my phone
- You know what you did

I'll pay you alimony for that

I don't want money

Do you know I was raped because of you?

You should be punished, not me

Are you crazy?

Are you OK?

I just came to make sure you're OK

- Let's go to the police!
- No, don't!

He got me into all this

Will you help me?

He must pay for all this

I want him dead

Dead?

- Kill him!
- Don't!

Don't! Calm down first

- I got raped because of him
- Don't!

He not only showed no sympathy, he beat me.

He's a devil

I want to kill him

Calm down! Let me think

Let me think what to do with him

We can't go to Love Pets

The helpers might show up any time

WW "Oi 90 to your place?

What are we gonna do? He'll wake up soon

What are we gonna do when he wakes up?

It's OK, I'll get you a towel first

I want to...

apologize

What I've been thinking to do is...

to take revenge of equal value

Excuse me, do you take in dogs here?

I'm free in the afternoons!

I haven't got a full-time job yet

Now that Pi is gone, it's gone with her forever

Vincent Lee caused Mimi's death

That's why you tortured me!

What did I do wrong?

What did Mimi do wrong then?

She worked for Lee

She knew he smuggled gold,
yet dared not expose him

One night he was drunk...

and raped her

Let me go!

Let me go!

Don't go to the police

I don't want to involve you

People in school will gossip about you

What's there to be afraid of?

I'm not afraid

Lee is very well-connected, we can't win

The law will protect us

It won't help!

He might go to jail for some time,

but rumors will follow us all our lives

Let's not talk about this

I don't want to talk about it anymore

We never talked about it since then,

neither could we go back to the way we were

Mimi became totally different

She was afraid of people,

wanted to be left alone

Later on, she got pregnant

We never mentioned who the baby's father was

Because she was already thinking of suicide

Even though she was in such bad shape,

I still loved her

I wanted the baby

I wanted to go back to the life we lived before

Little did I know that...

she became more and more depressed...

after the baby was born

Vincent raped Mimi,

and you raped me in return

Are you gonna kill me
to get your equal revenge?

I just knocked you unconscious...

to frighten you

When you report to the police,

it would most embarrass Vincent Lee

But you didn't

What have you done?

Vincent has never loved you

He feels nothing for you

How pathetic! You don't deserve this

But the least expected was...

I fell in love with you

I am sorry

Before I got married,

I plucked up the courage to go to you...

and made myself very clear

We will be together when I've fixed Vincent

Come on

Jasmine

I don't think I know you

Don't waste my time here

Let go of me

Do you want to go?

You may

You may leave...

with correct answers to my 3 questions

Playing this kind of shit with me!

What's my favorite color?

Bright colors

Money!

What color?

Green

My mom forced me to like green

The opera we watched together

What language was it in?

Italian

No! French

Last chance

French

French, French, French

It was Italian

I'm giving you one more chance

What deal do you want?

Tell me, how much money do you want?

Are you one of us?

How much?

I have many different connections

Say it, how much?

How much?

No.3

Have you ever loved me?

YES, yes!

You haven't!

Help, help!

Your turn

Help!

Do you remember who Mimi was?

It hurts so much! Who?

She was the accountant in your company

The one you raped

She committed suicide

I'm hereto make sure she gets justice

Don't! Don't!

I should be able to get a good sleep tonight

Good night

Murder is very hard,
getting away with it is harder

There must be some way

Maybe I'll think of one when you wake up

[Superintendent Lee]

- Go over there and check it out
- Yes, Sir!

- Go upstairs and take a look
- Yes, Sir!

She has been in a coma for so long,

God knows what drug she took,

she's probably not gonna wake up

If she does, she'll be charged
with the murder of her husband

Her husband wasn't a good guy anyway

He had a mistress, and smuggled gold

But the forensic doctor says
this is a very unusual case

There was very little blood at the crime scene,

it doesn't make sense the victim bled so little

For a "rich and famous" murder case like this,

it's either about women or money

Don't forget he smuggled gold, too,
so maybe the triads killed him

Check it out over here

[Fong Mo Chit]

Hello?

Fong Mo Chit jumped off a balcony 13 months ago

He died?

Also his wife jumped off a balcony 2 years ago

Different people want very different things

Some go for money

Some for love

Some for justice

As for myself, taking this revenge is...

simply on somebody's behalf,

somebody who helped me before

Somebody who meant a lotto me

Other than that,
I also wanted justice for my sister

Mimi is dead, Mimi is dead

I'm warning you, you must win today, clear?

Yes!

You are dead meat if you don't

The 1st runner up of The 2nd

Hong Kong Mathematical Olympiad Competition
for primary schools is...

Fong Mo Chit

The winner of The 2nd

Hong Kong Mathematical Olympiad Competition
for primary schools is...

Ngai Man Yin

Fong Mo Chit!

What?

Why did you let me win?

Because I have many trophies at home already,

I'd rather win a friend

OK, you got one

OK

So Fong gained 2 good friends, me and my sister

We were a perfect trio

We can't win

The law will protect us

- Wet the towel, please!
- OK

She has always been a princess in distress,

still waiting to be rescued by a prince

I didn't lie

I truly love her

But...my love for her is only
one possibility among the probabilities

People change from time to time

There's no perfect equation for human nature

If a choice between two isn't 50/50,
what is it then?

At the start the choice is 1 out of 3,
you have a 1/3 chance to win,

a 2/3 chance to lose

If you are given a chance to switch, you should

I understand what you're saying,

but I don't like your assumption that
my choice is wrong at the start

This isn't an assumption

This is probability,
it's the power of Mathematics, it's reliable

But you can't use Mathematicsto
solve everything in life

That's why I set up this game
to prove to all those who don't believe it

Fine! But I still believe in myself.
I'm gonna show you I was right

Do it again!
