what the exact meaning of BLUE?? I finished BLUE VALENTINE just now, which was put to screen at the very end of 2010. I thought it is a romantic story, but to my great surprise, there are too many episodes concerning sex. Is such film easy to accept in some western countries?? I have no idea! Maybe I misunderstood the meaning of BLUE, it also means porn, right? While we Chinese use YELLOW to allude same things, there are some culture discrepancies.

"Blue" can mean sexy or sad. "Yellow" means cowardly. Sex scenes happen a lot in films. We have ratings:- MA (Mature Audience) for sex and violence, and R (Restricted) for the more extreme.

Голубой Валентин / Грустная валентинка it is the name of this film in Russia. Second variant can be translated like "Sad valentine" Of course BLUE is not meaning porn. I have not seen this film before, but many people consider that it is the great film, very emotional and dramatic. Maybe you should just think about film sense and not about episodes concerning sex.
