11 Jun - "Switch" scenes depicting Taiwanese actress Lin Chi-ling have been removed from the Taiwanese version of the film for being too 'raunchy', reports Taiwanese media.
It was revealed that the deleted scenes included Lin's raunchy bedroom scene and some other scenes featuring the actress donning a nurse, flight attendant, nun and call girl outfits. As such, Taiwanese moviegoers will get 40 minutes less compared to other countries.

When the Taiwanese distributor was asked to address this issue, a spokesman from the corporation defended the move by saying that the cuts made were "to improve the flow of the film" and "to make the film look more exciting".
Apart from that, Lin Chi-ling's child-like voice in the film will also be dubbed as decided by the movie distributor in Taiwan. No reason has been given by the spokesman as of yet.
"Switch", featuring Hong Kong superstar Andy Lau, Tong Dawei, Zhang Jingchu and Lin Chi-ling, will open in Singaporean cinemas on 13 June.
