I doubt it. Chinese have little sense of humor. Or maybe 'weird' better describes it.
Man, at the circus they laugh if the highwire walker falls and hurts him/her self.
Seen it with my own eyes.

"Janet Leigh?? (maybe I have it.you mean the shower scene in Psycho?)''

Yep, got it. Tenuous, I know. Welcome to my mind...

Trapeze. Man, I love that film. Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis, what a team...

Is the sun over the yardarm?

If so, the wardroom bar is open.

Well here, the sun will be rising in a few hours..then I guess it's breakfast. Should I have a beer with my oatmeal?

The Copernican heliocentric model. Which is a fancy way of saying it doesn't really rise at all. The sun, that is, not the oatmeal.

OK, shutting up now...

Flow Gently Sweet Avon - Robbie Burns

swiftly flow the days

Flow gently, sweet Afton,
amang thy green braes,
Flow gently, I'll sing thee
a song in thy praise;
My Mary's asleep
by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton,
disturb not her dream.

Thou stock dove whose echo
resounds thro' the glen,
Ye wild whistly blackbirds
in yon thorny den,
Thou green crested lapwing
thy screaming forbear,
I charge you, disturb not
my slumbering fair.

How lofty, sweet Afton,
thy neighboring hills,
Far mark'd with the courses
of clear winding rills;
There daily I wander
as noon rises high,
My flocks and my Mary's
sweet cot in my eye.

How pleasant thy banks
and green valleys below,
Where, wild in the woodlands,
the primroses blow;
There oft, as mild evening
weeps over the lea,
The sweet-scented birk shades
my Mary and me.

Thy crystal stream, Afton,
how lovely it glides,
And winds by the cot where
my Mary resides;
How wanton thy waters
her snowy feet lave,
As, gathering sweet flowerets,
she stems thy clear wave.

Flow gently, sweet Afton,
amang thy green braes,
Flow gently, sweet river,
the theme of my lays;
My Mary's asleep
by thy murmuring stream,
Flow gently, sweet Afton,
disturb not her dreams.

It wasn't really Janet Leigh in the Shower scene. It was her "body double" [Marli Renfro, the well-known Playboy Bunny].

And as for Burt, I think I prefer "The Crimson Pirate". A real laugh and not to be taken seriously. The lovely Gina was a touch too wooden [very pretty, though].
