Butterflys Were Not Always Beautiful

The drama of this play really shocked me from the beginning to the end of the play. At first I though of this play as a humorous one but as the story continued it transformed to a sad one. Above the real event of the history of the world this play represent and above the interpretation of the relation of the west and the east , what It truly felt of this play was the tragedy of Gallimard.
In life there is nothing more painful than the pain of love. Gallimard suffer the greatest atrocity that can be done to a person who is truly in love. This men fell in love of what he considered to be the perfect woman, Chinese woman who was an opera actress. Gallimard was a men who constantly doubted of his masculinity so he first married a woman who was not that attractive and because of her history hardly any man could felt in love with her, and Gallimard was not the exception. Gallimard went to a Chinese Opera title M. Butterfly, and opera that he always like because he always wished to be the very masculine Pikerton who married a Chinese woman that was very submissive. Gallimard felt in love with the actress who played Cio-Cio Sang, called Song Liling. Gallimard saw in in Song that submissive woman and they started an affair. During their relation Gallimard never saw Song naked because she was very shy but she sometime please him in other ways that do not involve in penetration. They were both in love but Song always showed herself very interested in in Gallimards work as a diplomat in the government and she made Gallimard to retrieve for her important file about the United State war movement in Vietnam.
The tragic part comes now the part that shock me and made me felt sad. After twenty years of, love romance and desperation Gallimard was accused of giving secret information to a Chinese spy. Gallimar was send to the court were he learn a very painful truth, but it was also a truth that he somewhere hidden in his heart always new. In the court Gallimard met the real Song, Song was a spy for the Chinese and use Gallimard to obtain secret information of the government, but that was not all, Song was a men, a men who really felt in love of Gallimard and after all he wanted to be with him. Gallimard was devastated and he decided to live in the fantasy were his Butterfly existed. Gallimard was sent to jail and after many years he decided that he could not longer live in shame and kill himself.
Gallimard suffered humiliation and betrayal by loving a woman that never existed he ended up having the same faith as Cio-Cio Sang in the Chinese Opera, the faith of the woman he always wanted.
