Aspect Ratio Switch | |
| I Am Not Madame Bovary / int_7e680062 | comment |
Aspect Ratio Switch: Most of the film is shot in an unusual aspect ratio, a circle (similar to the final shot of every James Bond theme). When Li Xuelian brings her crusade to Beijing, the aspect ratio switches to square. It goes back to the circle when she returns to her hometown. | |

Motive Misidentification | |
| I Am Not Madame Bovary / int_aa3d3d1a | comment |
Motive Misidentification: Rare heroic example, where the motives are hidden from the audience. Li Xuelian spends the entire film declaring that she and her husband faked their divorce in order to get a second place. the ending reveals that they actually concocted the scheme because she was pregnant and they wanted two kids; a loophole in the law would allow them to "re-marry" and have a second child. | |
